If a white man falls off a chair drunk, it's just a drunk. If a Negro does, it's the whole damn Negro race.

More quotes by Bill Cosby
There are no absolutes in raising children. In any stressful situation, fathering is always a roll of the dice. The game may be messy, but I have never found one with more joys and rewards.
Bill Cosby
I wanted to give the house back to the parents.
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. There is not an agent in the CIA or the KGB who knows how to conceal the theft of food, how to fake being asleep, or how to forge a parent's signature like a child.
Bill Cosby
But if that's what you want to be, that's what you will be - as long as you study.
Bill Cosby
Did you ever see the customers in health - food stores? They are pale, skinny people who look half - dead. In a steak house, you see robust, ruddy people. They're dying, of course, but they look terrific.
Bill Cosby
Let me say this: I only expect the black media to uphold the standards of excellence in journalism and when you do that, you have to go in with a neutral mind.
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
You people are not prepared. You are well educated and you look cute, but that's not going to cut it.
Bill Cosby
A father has to do everything in his power to keep a tight ship, even though he knows the crew would like to send him away in a dinghy.
Bill Cosby
The heart of marriage is memories.
Bill Cosby
God has a sense of humor though and he must see funny things in us. He must also have some love. We're still here and there are still great things that go on. There are great doctors who discover how to separate twins and how to put together a human being to walk again after it's said he won't. Those are all there as signs.
Bill Cosby
Pay off your student loan. Even if you don't have a job...Because when you finally get a job you're going to be one of us.
Bill Cosby
There should be marches in every neighborhood every day telling the people about the negativity of drugs and how the drugs help us to behave negatively.
Bill Cosby
The first-born in every family is always dreaming for an imaginary older brother or sister who will look out for them.
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
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
I love it when mothers get so mad they can't remember your name. Come here, Roy, er, Rupert, er, Rutabaga... what is your name, boy? And don't lie to me, because you live here, and I'll find out who you are.
Bill Cosby
Whenever your kids are out of control, you can take comfort from the thought that even God's omnipotence did not extend to His kids.
Bill Cosby
Why do I have to feed the kids? They just ate twelve hours ago!
Bill Cosby
In your 50s, time becomes precious and must not be wasted. Every minute is an excellent opportunity for a good nap. Happy 50th birthday!
Bill Cosby
