More quotes by Bill Cosby
It's painful, but we can't heal ourselves unless we cleanse the wounds.
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
I don't know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody.
Bill Cosby
All parents experience the same problems.
Bill Cosby
And to those people with no children but who think they'd like to have them some day to fulfill their lives. Remember: With fulfillment comes responsibility.
Bill Cosby
And of course, when you see your brother in the toilet bowl...there's a little voice that say, 'I wonder where he would go...'...if it hadn't been for his head.
Bill Cosby
Dentists tell you not to pick your teeth with any sharp metal object. Then you sit in their chair and the first thing they grab is an iron hook.
Bill Cosby
Grandparents are God's gifts to children.
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
Well, I really don't know what the secret of success is but I can tell you that the secret of failure is to try to please everyone.
Bill Cosby
The weatherman is always right. It's just his timing that's off.
Bill Cosby
When the child is twelve, your wife buys her a splendidly silly article of clothing called a training bra. To train what? I never had a training jock. And believe me, when I played football, I could have used a training jock more than any twelve-year-old needs a training bra.
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
When I decided that I wanted to go to college, I wanted to be a school teacher for 7th and 8th grade boys because I felt that was an important time for them. I had gone astray at that point in my life and really wanted to help keep them from making the same mistake I had made.
Bill Cosby
As a comedian, I can walk out in front of 5000 people and not worry about a thing. Not a thing, believe me. But to stand up a face a camera and crew of maybe 15 guys and get up tight about it - to me that's weird.
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
There are some people who have trouble recognizing a mess.
Bill Cosby
Don't talk yourself into not being you.
Bill Cosby
I recently turned fifty, which is young for a tree, mid-life for an elephant, and ancient for a quarter-miler, whose son now says, Dad, I just can't run the quarter with you anymore, unless I bring something to read.
Bill Cosby
Family is conflict and it's something that we all relate to.
