"I have the world's largest collection of seashells, I keep it spread out on the beaches around the world. Perhaps you've seen it." Stephen Wright

Not just one of the most original comedians but he also has a brilliant delivery. Love watching old episodes of Steven on the Craig Ferguson Late Late Show. Thank you for posting this.

I remember that title for him, would think something in the one liner genre would be closer to Rodney Dangerfield. Steven is ok (comedy is indeed subjective), but not in the master class of comedy imho.

I went to school with a Steven Wright in Jamaica Plain section of Boston. I’m a little older than this Steven from Boston but there does seem to be a resemblance. I always wondered if they were related.
