You have to meet all of the challenges, big and small. Because how you start is how you finish.

I took my sports experience to my life on stage. That's why I'm so disciplined. Playing sports, I was always underestimated. I was never picked first to do anything. This always helped me. It taught me how to push myself.

I hate to let people down. I was like that in sports and I was like that in comedy. I was like that at work. When I worked General Motors and stuff like that, when I say something, I mean it.

Why do people love Richard Pryor so much? 'Cause he had problems.

People like rumors. They're going to say things like, 'You was at the club with Lil' Kim, and you and Kanye West got into a fist fight.' You can't get upset. You've got to keep hope alive.

You can't be a doctor if you don't know the entire parts of the body.

I'm not a politician, I'm a comedian. I know my limitations.
