More quotes by Bill Cosby
If you listen carefully to what a child is saying to you, you'll see that he has a point to make. So I listen. And I answer them just as seriously as possible. And if I don't know the answer, I'll tell them I don't know.
Bill Cosby
Anyone who has brought up children knows that consistency has absolutely nothing to do with discipline.
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
Racial humor was about 35% of my act when I first started. But I realized that it was a crutch. What brought it home was when another comedian said to me, 'If you changed color tomorrow, you wouldn't have any material.' He meant it as a put-down, but I took it as a challenge.
Bill Cosby
Nothing I've ever done has given me more joys and rewards than being a father to my children.
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
You can not make everybody happy.
Bill Cosby
I brought you in this world, and I can take you out!
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
A person with no children says, Well I just love children, and you say Why? and they say, Because a child is so truthful, that's what I love about 'em - they tell the truth. That's a lie, I've got five of 'em. The only time they tell the truth is if they're having pain.
Bill Cosby
A grandchild is God's reward for raising a child.
Bill Cosby
A new father quickly learns that his child invariably comes to the bathroom at precisely the times when he's in there, as if he needed company. The only way for this father to be certain of bathroom privacy is to shave at the gas station.
Bill Cosby
Romance is a different word than sexual contact.
Bill Cosby
My mother was an authority on pig sties. This is the worst looking pigsty I have ever seen in my life, and I want it cleaned up right now.
Bill Cosby
I don't have a clue about the way to achievement, however the way to disappointment is attempting to please everyone.
Bill Cosby
The secret of success is to be like a duck, Smooth and unruffled on top, But paddling furiously underneath.
Bill Cosby
People say God will find a way. God can't find a way if you're in the way.
Bill Cosby
People should fact check. People shouldn’t have to go through that and shouldn’t answer to innuendos.
Bill Cosby
Is the glass half full, or half empty? It depends on whether you're pouring, or drinking.
Bill Cosby
The worst thing to do is to die while reading LIFE magazine.
