I got five kids - I claim three for income tax purposes.
God gave us dreams, but he gave us kids to make all those dreams worthwhile. And when I look at all my kids, I say everything that I've ever went through in my life was worthwhile.
Parents should support and love their kids no matter what.
When I was a young kid, my pops introduced me to it. He took me to Harlem, 145th and Edgecombe, to watch the filming of Claudine with James Earl Jones and Diahann Carroll. That was my first taste of seeing a set and the cameras, and I was bit by the acting bug at a young age.
I'm not focused on the outrageousness. I'm just focused on being funny, and raising my kids. I don't even read the newspaper, I don't read that crap.
I don't like doing stand-up for little kids. It's not geared for that.
I'm around my kids every day. I'm regular. We're a regular family. My wife cooks, she washes clothes, I read books, I pump my own gas, I get my own hair cut.
I was like any other inner-city kid with a chip on his shoulder because his daddy and his mommy wasn't together.
I'm no Jerry Seinfeld. I wasn't raised with some backyard with a creek and trees and all that.
I want to show the world my humor.
I mellowed out; my daughter mellowed me out, and I don't get mad at anyone.
I'm not getting any younger. You're not getting any younger, so yeah. You age.
I'm a black man in America, so I'm going to be misunderstood.
I love working with Alec Baldwin. He's one of the five greatest actors ever to live.
