I know my spirit is not mean, and I have a very good spirit and a funny spirit.
I don't control the line of 'funny,' 'funny,' 'funny,' 'not funny.'
Cool is the enemy of funny. You can't be cool and be funny at the same time. Only Eddie Murphy could do that.
Ladies are honest. They're my motivation. They know what's funny, and the dudes just follow.
If I make fun of somebody at my show, believe me, it's something we can all laugh at.
For my first gig, I got $75. I could make money being funny, so I pursued it as a career and have turned it into a lucrative business.
Stand-up and comedy is the place where we are supposed to be able to make fun of all of the world's ills.
I can't watch American Idol... it's like karaoke without the booze.
A stand-up's job is to hold the mirror up to society and to look at what we're afraid of. That's why we had shows like 'All in the Family' and 'The Jeffersons.' We made fun of ourselves then.
I've still got family members living below the poverty line in New York.
'Saturday Night Live' was the joy of my life.
There's nothing wrong with looking at a woman's kneecaps.
I was never a big comic book fan. I was always more into the baseball cards.
Most creative thing I've ever done? Got somebody pregnant.
