Tell your girlfriend or wife you love them everyday. Like I do!

I observe everything around me and when something hits me and it's funny, that's what I talk about. I'm a more observational kind of comic.

That's what I take pride in in my stand-up, is changing things up. Being special.

I think the audience should take away that it's okay to be smart, it's okay to be funny and well-learned. You can be from academia and be funny; you don't have to be an idiot.

My black friends in America don't believe me. I said, 'Dude, I'm Nigerian American.' 'Word? We thought you were, like, regular black.' What the hell is 'regular black'? Crayola coming out with colors I don't know about?

I'm still trying to understand the wearing off high heels at the airport.

I got into trouble a lot in school. They say you're a disturbance in class. You're a distraction, they're moving you around. You never really get rewarded in class for being funny. You're a disturbance. But the funny kid is often witty and clever and quick... they finally get a chance to express themselves when they get out of school.
