I don't like forcing comedy and people just trying to do things just to find a funny beat all the time.

For me [in my stand-ups] I do what is from the heart. I do what I relate to, what I can talk about, things that I can define. I don't try to talk about things just because they might be a popular subject. I talk about things I know about.

I just try to get along with people and show the love that I would like to be shown to me.

My audience is a diehard audience. They are dedicated. My audience always follows me and sticks with me. They're the reason I'm still here - in the films and in stand-ups.

Fatherhood means a great deal to me. I love it. To me, there aint nothing better, because your kids keep it real with you. When you think things are bad, you look at them and they show you how things could be all right, and it's all worth it.

If somebody pisses me off and I understand it ain't personal then I'll go to another place and I'll meditate.

NO ONE is immune to the trials and tribulations of life.
