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.

Shaft was a pop culture figure along t he lines of, I guess, Dirty Harry - except that he wasn't as much of a racist. So yeah, I was always a fan.

I laugh at absurdity hardest, then stories, then observations, then bearded men on roller skates.

Greater technological connectivity makes the world wider, and the walls of isolation - thinner.
