I just want to be funny, I just want to do comedy.
To me, politics is a pile of tricks.
My sense of humor was a tool for me getting past my mother and father separating, my older brother having cerebral palsy, and the bullies in the schoolyard. I had to make them laugh to keep them off my ass. I brought that to my professional career.
I love being around people who love to do what I love to do, which is comedy.
I would love to try action films.
You can't hold me to the same standard as the president or a school teacher. I'm just a comedian. My job is like Archie Bunker.
You get somebody to crack a smile, that's a beautiful thing.
You will be surprised but I do a lot of studying and I watch National Geographic.
I want to let my fans know I love them and I'm coming your way and I'm bringing truckloads of funny.
Life smacks Tracy Morgan in the face, and I don't mean to talk in third party, but no, it doesn't stop raining when I come outside, no, absolutely not. I'm very in touch.
I deal with my sons like young men. If they have a problem with something, they come to me. I am the type of dad that will drop everything I am doing for them, and always tell them to talk to me about it.
I don't need no stool and mike stand. I don't need all of that to be funny. I've been funny my whole life. This is a gift God gave me. I spread love wherever I'm at. I'm like Marvin Gaye.
People bring camera phones into comedy shows and clubs and concerts, and sound bites never come out right.
I don't really take the college tours and all that. Those are young people and I'm quite sure they're mature enough to understand, but they haven't seen or lived real life yet.
