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.
When I want to work on my material, I go to Benihana or the barbershop.
You have to be highly intelligent to get away with a dumb joke. That takes a pretty smart fella.
I don't see myself as angry, although other people see that. I just see myself as a short, dumpy guy with bad feet, and I'm passionate.
I don't get on the phone and prank people and things like that on the phone with people, no.
I don't even read the newspaper; I don't read that crap.
I don't believe in storks. I know they don't deliver babies; they deliver pickles.
I come from where Mike Tyson came from. I come from right across the street from Jay-Z. I didn't have a pond in my backyard. I saw violence.
I believe gay, straight, anybody, everybody's supposed to be happy in this world, man.
Even when I'm sitting up in this glass castle, I still got my street soldiers telling me what's happening.
America doesn't like to hear about things like welfare. 'Don't talk about that. We don't like what it did to people!' Yeah, but it happened.
All you single fathers got to man up.
There's nothing in the world like live entertainment. With TV, you have to wait for your results; with live entertainment, people let you know right then and there. That relationship is established in 30 seconds. The first 30 seconds, they'll let you know whether they like you or not.
