More quotes by Bill Cosby
You know my father's favorite game? Come here and pull my finger.
Bill Cosby
I don't think you can bring the races together by joking about the differences between them. I'd rather talk about the similarities, about what's universal in their experiences.
Bill Cosby
Mediocre people are the most dangerous people in the world.
Bill Cosby
As I have discovered by examining my past, I started out as a child. Coincidentally, so did my brother. My mother did not put all her eggs in one basket, so to speak: she gave me a younger brother named Russell, who taught me what was meant by 'survival of the fittest.'
Bill Cosby
The essence of childhood, of course, is play.
Bill Cosby
Take your bottom lip and pull it over your head.
Bill Cosby
Man can not live by bread alone ... he must have peanut butter.
Bill Cosby
My children love my mother, and I tell my children, that is not the same woman I grew up with...That is an old woman trying to get into heaven now.
Bill Cosby
College was a wonderful time - except, of course, when it was trying to teach you things.
Bill Cosby
Is the glass half full, or half empty? It depends on whether you're pouring, or drinking.
Bill Cosby
Never say [to younger people] that was before your time, because the last full moon was before their time!
Bill Cosby
Pay off your student loan. Even if you don't have a job...Because when you finally get a job you're going to be one of us.
Bill Cosby
My childhood should have taught me lessons for my own fatherhood, but it didn't because parenting can only be learned by people who have no children.
Bill Cosby
I can't even talk the way these people talk. 'Why you ain't?' 'Where you is?' Everybody knows it's important to speak English except these knuckleheads. You can't be a doctor with that kind of crap coming out of your mouth.
Bill Cosby
When a person has a gun, sometimes their mind clicks that this thing ... will win arguments and straighten people out.
Bill Cosby
Anyone can dabble, but once you've made that commitment, your blood has that particular thing in it, and it's very hard for people to stop you.
Bill Cosby
There should be more on television that uplifts people and shows them how to better prepare themselves for earning a living. There still aren't enough people that say this should not be. We just let it go. We need to raise a loud voice about our fellow human beings.
Bill Cosby
God has a sense of humor though and he must see funny things in us. He must also have some love. We're still here and there are still great things that go on. There are great doctors who discover how to separate twins and how to put together a human being to walk again after it's said he won't. Those are all there as signs.
Bill Cosby
There are no absolutes in raising children. In any stressful situation, fathering is always a roll of the dice. The game may be messy, but I have never found one with more joys and rewards.
Bill Cosby
If the new American father feels bewildered and even defeated, let him take comfort from the fact that whatever he does in any fathering situation has a fifty percent chance of being right.
Bill Cosby
