Richard Pryor

I was kicked out of school because of my attitude. I was not assimilating. So I went to work, taking any jobs I could get.

A sold-out house my first night back. Do you have any idea what kinda pressure that is? I could have been at home in my warm bed, playing Nintendo.

I'd like to make you laugh for about ten minutes though I'm gonna be on for an hour.

I'm a big action junkie. I grew up on the '80s action movies - the bad ones and the good ones.

The blessing that this film business has given me is that when I walk into a school I automatically have everyone's attention. They want to hear what the guy from 'Con Air' and 'Desperado' has to say.

I have always had confidence in my own ability.
