People walked out on Richard Pryor and he's the funniest man alive.

Saturday Night Live' was like a university for funny.

You get somebody to crack a smile, that's a beautiful thing.

The truth is, I've never thought of myself as the Michael Jordan of comedy. And that's a good thing. You know why? Because I'm not. Wasn't that Richard Pryor? Yes, it was. I know what I am: I'm funny!

If we all had a little bit of Michael Jackson in us, I think it would make the world a better place.

To me, politics is a pile of tricks.

George Carlin is an influence on a generation. He made me want to do comedy.
