If you don't want your children to know the truth about life don't send 'em to the theater to see Moms 'cause I'm gonna tell them THE TRUTH, hear?

[On old age:] You wake up one morning and you got it.

I don't want nothing old but some old money. Buy me some young ideas. That's what I'm gonna do with it.

The teenagers aren't all bad. I love 'em if nobody else does. There ain't nothing wrong with young people. Jus' quit lyin' to 'em.

Anytime you see me with my arms around an old man, I'm holding him for the police.

Black women, white women- all of them. I'm colorblind. I don't know the difference. I only know you're a human being and you're my children.

Love is like playing checkers. You have to know which man to move.
