What does America love more than one white male?

America does not like losers. Look how we treated those soldiers who came back from Vietnam. Because they lost. America likes winners.

America has a rap sheet. You can't police the world and tell the world how to act when you're just as bad yourself.

America is racial. America was founded on race. Race is America. The code name for America is 'race.'

I have nothing to do with racism in America; it was here when I got here.
art freed helped opened west
I'm like the Davy Crockett of comedy... after Davy Crockett opened up the West and helped everybody... they didn't need him anymore. I freed a lot of comics... if I never would have done comedy, it would've been a different art form... I'm sure of it.
good hard liberty ourselves
It was hard to look at ourselves as the good guys. It just wasn't about liberty and democracy.
I like comedy, I mean, in all forms.

Tennessee Williams knew about the South, but he would clean it up and lie about it.

Sometimes, what you do you have no control over because it's predestined. It's gonna happen in spite of you. There's nothing you can do about it.

One of the things that is interesting is, I saw both sides. I'd done it, so what could they say? I didn't ask to go, I didn't ask to feel the way I did.

I am very concerned about Barbara Streisand using the 'H' word - 'honkey.' That's what I am concerned about. I am worried about Barbara.
I have known Michael Richards for something like 20 years. We're friends.
best mold
My grandmother was the best. She loved you for you. She loved me for me. She was old-school. They broke the mold with her. They don't make them like that any more.
