Let me tell you, never before in the history of this planet has anybody made the progress that African-Americans have made in a 30-year period, in spite of many black folks and white folks lying to one another.

In most places in the country, voting is looked upon as a right and a duty, but in Chicago it's a sport.

I consider myself always a humorist. And I think anybody who tells jokes or makes people laugh is humor.

If they took all the drugs, nicotine, alcohol and caffeine off the market for six days, they'd have to bring out the tanks to control you.

What happens to Black Folks today, happens to White Folks tomorrow.
