I don't get high, but sometimes I wish I did. That way, when I messed up in life I would have an excuse. But right now there's no rehab for stupidity.
Chris RockSo there's a cloud of rage around me, but being an artist kind of changes that. No matter what you thought coming in, what ignorant thing you believed, you're in show business for two years, you're like, "OK, I was wrong." It's hard to be mad at any particular group of people when you're an artist.
Chris RockMy mother got sick when I was rich. And my mother, you know โฆ I donโt really want to get into it, but my mother was sicker than my father. And my motherโs alive. My motherโs fine, OK? I remember going to the hospital to see my mother and wondering, โWas I in the right place?โ Like, this was a hotel. Like it had a concierge, man. If the average person really knew the discrepancy in the health care system, thereโd be riots in the streets, OK? They would burn this m-therfโker down!
