Sometimes I think we're exposed to things we shouldn't be exposed to too early. I think that sets the tone to a person's whole life.

If I don't offend somebody, then I'm probably not funny.

I grew up in the projects in Brooklyn, and I consider myself lucky and blessed to be where I am - just working.

I was like any other inner-city kid with a chip on his shoulder because his daddy and his mommy wasn't together.

I just want to have a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, so that when I'm long gone my great-great-grandchildren can walk up to it and say, "That's my ancestor." That will be my legacy.

I spread love wherever I'm at. I'm like Marvin Gaye.

Bones heal, but the loss of my friend will never heal.
