I'm every father. I'm not only a black father. I'm a white father. I'm a Chinese father. I'm a Mexican father. I'm all fathers that want their sons out of the house and stop eating up all the food. Get a job, please. Stop looking at the TV.
John Witherspoon
When you're poor, an egg sandwich is dinner and you cut your potatoes with a butter knife.
My father was a preacher so I wouldn't sing at all when he was around, but as soon as he locked the door, 'La la la.'
In 'Boomerang,' they didn't have a script at all, they just told me to come up with some stuff.
Being on the toilet stool is the grossest thing there is, to me.
When we did 'Boomerang,' which is one of my favorite scenes, the whole dinner scene was ad-libbed.
The kids of America, please get a damn job. Get out of the house, leave the refrigerator alone. Stop wearing my shoes. Leave my shirts alone, get a job. Spend your own money.
If I hit the lotto, I would be nowhere near the road. But I got bills to pay.
That's my father's theme. Get up in the morning, 'hello, Dad.' 'Get a job, leave the food alone... Who took my car?' America, you young kids, get a job. All that sagging, the clothes hanging behind, that ain't nothing. Get a job. You want to be somebody, get a job.
I'm sick of all these boring cooking shows.
I am old-school.
St. Louis is an excellent city.
When you're hungry, everything tastes good.
If something is too risque, don't watch it.
The word got out that I can ad-lib very well.
I didn't change my voice for 'The Boondocks.'
I am cantankerous.
There's a real outcry out there for 'The Boondocks.'
I always tell comics you got to hang with your stand-up.
