Bill Cosby was the first comedian I was exposed to, because he doesn't curse.

I was at Michael Jackson's house, and this kid runs out, 'Wait, save me!'

Black movies don't have real names, they have names like Barbershop. That's not a name, that's just a location.

I never really write the jokes. I just sit down over a week or two and try to figure out what I want to talk about. Once I narrow that down, then I start working on the material, like "How do I make this stuff funny?"

I learned pretty quickly that it's your WORK ETHIC that LEVELS THE PLAYING FIELD. Education helps, but I've met failures who have Ph.D.s. I believe the hardest worker is always going to win.

A black man will be elected President of the United States. I'm sorry, that's in the year 10,000.

America is the only place where people go hunting on a full stomach.
