More quotes by Bill Cosby
The serve was invented so that the net could play.
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
I wasn't always black... there was this freckle, and it got bigger and bigger.
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.
Bill Cosby
Every father says the same thing: “Where's your mother?”
Bill Cosby
People say God will find a way. God can't find a way if you're in the way.
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
The essence of childhood, of course, is play, which my friends and I did endlessly on streets that we reluctantly shared with traffic.
Bill Cosby
I don't have a clue about the way to achievement, however the way to disappointment is attempting to please everyone.
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
My grandpa didn't believe in hugging and kissing, or saying I love you. His love had to do with the way he treated you. When he said, We're going here, we're going there, he was telling me about life. That was his love for me. My love for him was listening to what he said, keeping out of trouble, doing right, being fair.
Bill Cosby
I don't know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody.
Bill Cosby
It is not a matter of who is rejecting me, as much as it is somebody may get it, and I am going to keep plowing through it because in this world of education, there is a harvest.
Bill Cosby
The secret of success is to be like a duck, Smooth and unruffled on top, But paddling furiously underneath.
Bill Cosby
Grandparents are God's gifts to children.
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
Fatherhood is pretending the present you love most is soap-on-a-rope.
Bill Cosby
Family is conflict and it's something that we all relate to.
Bill Cosby
I can't even talk the way these people talk. 'Why you ain't?' 'Where you is?' Everybody knows it's important to speak English except these knuckleheads. You can't be a doctor with that kind of crap coming out of your mouth.
Bill Cosby
College was a wonderful time - except, of course, when it was trying to teach you things.
