You can't change what happened. Just like you can't change the future by worrying about it. You just have to keep moving.
Fear is not one of my attributes.
Whatever success I've had, I always like to top it.
Whatever you hear at the barber shop, stays at the barber shop.
I can't build myself by beating somebody down.
The Bernie Mac Show' is my life. It's the truth, and I'm not ashamed of a minute, an hour, or a second of my life.
Only way you can you get upset is when you expecting something.
Black audiences are hard. They always think they're better than you. So you got to come with a little extra to satisfy them.
I learned hard lessons in life; I had to because I had so much happen: My mother died my sophomore year in high school. The next year, same day, my brother dropped dead. Two years after that, I got married because my girlfriend got pregnant. The year after my wedding, my father - who I had only recently met - died.
Making people laugh is what I've been doing since I was like four or five years old. I still have a lust, I still have a passion. I don't care about how I look, I'm dedicated to the laughs.
I always wanted to scuba dive. I used to scuba dive undercover like black Aquaman.

My daughter was a beautiful child.
I have Glocks, .45s, Berettas, Remingtons. I like the marksmanship and the discipline that it takes to be a gun owner. I like the machinery. Being able to take it out and clean it is even more fascinating than having the gun.
