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

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
The childless experts on child raising also bring tears of laughter to my eyes when they say, I love children because they're so honest.

Bill Cosby
I'm going out... because I deserve to go out! And I'm going to get drunk... because I deserve to get drunk! And get out of my way!
Bill Cosby
You are not going to 'go forth.' You are going to take that damn hat off and you're going to get a job.
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.
