looking people tired
People say to me, 'Do you know who you look like?' And I say, 'I'm really tired of looking like that guy.'
accepted happiest religious saying scoring september temple university
In September of 1960, I was blessed - and I'm not saying blessed in the everyday religious way - when Temple University accepted me after scoring 500 on the SAT. I was 23 years old, and they put me in remedial. I was the happiest remedial person on earth.
age decided high life point
I managed my life to the point that at age 19 I was still in high school. I decided I was too old to be walking down those hallways.
car commercial funny saw whatever
I never saw anything funny in a car commercial - but that's OK. Whatever they wanted to do - it's their product and I'm the spokesperson, and I'm going to deliver.
sitting
In all of my career, the style is still the same, and that is of a friend, just sitting and talking.
approaches biggest claim people raised
People have all kinds of approaches when they come up to me. Some of them are so nervous: 'You know, Mr. Cosby, you are my biggest fan!' I am? Some of them even claim that I raised them.
life people
Things from real life are the things that get people laughing.
parts
Things are old. Parts are old. I'm talking about 'us' parts. AARP-parts. Some of us were born with stronger parts than others.
Telemarketers tell me I sound like Bill Cosby.
I've said all along I've never competed with 'The Simpsons.' Not in my own mind.
heard people seen
I've always heard about people having a conniption, but I've never seen one.
I got into Temple University on a track scholarship.
bad dropping men
When I look at 55 percent of our black men dropping out of school, how bad off are we going to be when we need some lawyers?
attention god pays
God has not made anything that I know of that pays so much attention to who their father and mother is as us.
