When you're white, the sky's the limit. When you're black, the limit's the sky.

We treat racism in this country like it's a style that America went through. Like flared legs and lava lamps. Oh, that crazy thing we did. We were hanging black people. We treat it like a fad instead of a disease that eradicates millions of people. You've got to get it at a lab, and study it, and see its origins, and see what it's immune to and what breaks it down.

Hollywood's just not funny.

My first year on 'SNL', I made $90,000 dollars.

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

I try to stay with it and I try to stay in contact with comedians and just keep comedians in my life 'cause comedians are their own species. If you get away from them, especially as a comedian, I think it's dangerous.

A sense of humor is great - it goes a long, long way in a marriage.
