The things I did on Saturday Night Live are going to stay as Saturday Night Live. You've never seen Eddie Murphy do a Gumby movie. There's a lot more new material inside of me.

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'm not really much into politics, because it's rarely discussed in my line of work, but I know that Barack Obama is trying his best, and that at some point down the road, he's going to get it right.

Reality is the scary thing. Not my work, not comedy.

When I'm in the mood to listen to music, I do like to go to the SkyBar [ L.A.].

Outside of show business, I live a normal life.

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