More quotes by Bill Cosby

Bill Cosby
The measure ov overexposure is not how many times people see you on TV or in the bookstores. It's whether you can maintain the quality of your entertainment. If you can, people will always be glad to see you.
Bill Cosby

Meadowlark and I share a common vision of bringing joy and laughter to others.
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
Parents are people who yell and they yell and they yell and they yell. And you already have the point... and they're still yelling.
Bill Cosby
In America ... the seven ages of man have become preschooler, Pepsi generation, baby boomer, mid-lifer, empty-nester, senior citizen, and organ donor.
Bill Cosby
Never say [to younger people] that was before your time, because the last full moon was before their time!
Bill Cosby
Education happens to be something that all people, all cultures, need to embrace. Math, science, the words of the world. To be able to speak and be able to have clarity and to be able to think. Those are the greatest of gifts.
Bill Cosby
