Everybody that’s successful lays a blueprint out.
A reputation as a hard worker is a good reputation to have.
Is everything funny? For me, yes. There’s a positive to every negative. Even my divorce? For me, yes. If you go back and look at it, why it happened or how it happened, there’s something in there that’ll make you laugh.
I can get where some scientists would say comedians are crazy. What you have to understand: A lot of comedians are dealing with a dark passion. A lot of these are guys coming from a tumultuous life, including myself. Some people need outlets, a way to express yourself.
I feel like whatever you’ve done in your career, good or bad, it’s nothing but preparation for the big events to come.
Dialogue means debates and everyone’s point of view.
I’m a businessman as well as an entertainer. The reason why is because I want to own whatever I’m doing. I don’t want to work for other people forever.
I’m never gonna step away from stand-up. I can’t. That’s what got me where I am, and that’s also my muse. That’s how I stay level-headed. That’s what keeps me going.
Barbra Streisand has accomplished so much, and Dustin Hoffman as well. They are down to earth and approachable. I admire that.
All I can do is try to create my own brand and have people appreciate me for that.
All men hate the nagging.
Almost anything can be funny if said the right way – but it has to be said the right way.
At the end of the day, your fans are the people who support you in and out. And their opinions matter.
HartBeat Productions is a company established by me; it’s mine. I run it. I have employees.
Expect me to continue what I’ve been doing, which is trying to take over the world.
I like playing basketball and going to the gym. I don’t box, but I’ll ride my bike and go jogging or running in the park. Sometimes my lady and I go hiking.
I feel like I have a job to do, like I constantly have to reinvent myself. The more I up the ante for myself, the better it is in the long run. I try to interact with my fans as much as possible. It’s good that the person I’m being onstage isn’t really an act. It’s really me.
I’m not a big politics guy.
I go onstage and I talk, and I remember what I’m saying, and I track it.
I never do anything that I don’t want to do.
