More quotes by Bill Cosby
I feel that in-person contact with people is the most important thing in comedy. While I'm up on stage, I can actually put myself into the audience and adjust my pace and tuning to them. I can get into their heads through their ears and through their eyes. Only through this total communication can I really achieve what I'm trying to do.

The weatherman is always right. It's just his timing that's off.
Bill Cosby
These people marched and were hit in the face with rocks to get an education and now we've got these knuckleheads walking round.

Anyone who has brought up children knows that consistency has absolutely nothing to do with discipline.

In my old neighborhood, a boy stopped playing when he began to lose his pulse. And then he became the referee.
Bill Cosby
The game of chess. Supposedly men made it up, and it's about war and men and the ravages and the bravery and the genius of commanding and moving pieces and ... No. It's marriage. The Queen moves anywhere she wants.

Having a child is surely the most beautifully irrational act that two people in love can commit.
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
My dad came over to the house... went into his pocket and pulled out a handful of money, and began to pass it out to the children... This was the same man who, when I was his child, I would ask him for 50 cents, this man would tell me his life's story.
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
People will frighten you about a graduation.... They use words you don't hear often: And we wish you Godspeed. It is a warning, Godspeed. It means you are no longer welcome here at these prices.
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
All around the United States of America - in the cities and the counties - our public education is suffering and has been suffering. Cuts, cuts, cuts.
Bill Cosby
My father established our relationship when I was seven years old. He looked at me and said, “You know, I brought you in this world, and I can take you out. And it don't make no difference to me, I'll make another one look just like you.
Bill Cosby
Parents are not interested in justice, they're interested in peace and quiet.
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.

When we look at the settling of America we see a Bible in hand and God. Every Thanksgiving has God and the peacefulness of gratitude. It was important when the Twin Towers were hit and the sorrow with them that the first thing Congress did was sing God Bless America.
Bill Cosby
The beautiful thing about older people is their ability to cut the fat off of conversation. When they talk, they don't go on forever and ever. They say what they have to say, and that's it. That was my grand dad. Some of the things he said stunned me, but his words were logical. I'll never forget them.
Bill Cosby
I don't have a problem believing in God and Jesus. But in Genesis one has to wonder about these sentences that just go on and end without finishing. The thought is unfinished. Where did Adam go? What is he doing? Hello? There has to be some pages missing.

A baseball manager has learned a lot about his job from having played the game, but a parent has not learned a thing from having once been a child.
