believe club offend trying work
I don't believe I can offend you in a comedy club. I don't believe I can offend you in a concert. A comedy club is a place where you work out material; you're trying material.
funny believe taken
And even if you get shot by a stray bullet, you don't gotta go to no doctor to get it taken out, whoever shot you will take they bullet back! "I believe you have my property!"
believe i-believe property
I believe you have my property!
believe winning work-ethic
I learned pretty quickly that it's your WORK ETHIC that LEVELS THE PLAYING FIELD. Education helps, but I've met failures who have Ph.D.s. I believe the hardest worker is always going to win.
believe law comedian
You just got to be really logical when you're a comedian - to a fault. Like a lawyer's got to believe in the law.
attitude believe son
I was raised to believe that you had to do things better than white people in order to succeed. The old black shows were better than the white shows. The Jeffersons was a lot better. Good Times was way funnier. Sanford and Son. Now, though, everyone thinks we're equal, so we submit the same s... that everyone else submits. And then we get mad when they won't air it. You got to go back to the old attitude of it has to be twice as good.

I'm in show business, ... I want to hang out with Janet Jackson, not Jesse Jackson.

These people depend on public transportation, and these people can't afford a nice hotel, because some of them work there. Now it's your chance to help them.

I want to thank all the white kids who beat (me). I'm rich!
black cosby exception father guys james
I kind of wanted to give him that James Evans nobility, ... With the exception of 'The Cosby Show,' every black father I see on TV, they're not really masculine. They're like these theater-type guys -- not gay, not straight, just theater.
walked
I've been working for a while -- I don't think I've ever done anything and walked out,
check depend jump nice people public time
Not everyone can jump in their SUV's and go check into a nice hotel. Those people depend on public transportation... Now it's the time to do something for them.
approve comments cringe name
I should see every script, I should make my comments and approve of jokes. I can't cringe at a show that's got my name on it.
casting excuse famous funny gonna horrible seen stunt
I've never seen stunt casting that's actually funny: 'Oh, it's Shaq,' and then there's some horrible excuse for him to dunk, ... It's, like, 'We got a famous guy, and he's gonna be famous tonight' -- and it sucks!
