Bill Cosby
The secret of success is to be like a duck, Smooth and unruffled on top, But paddling furiously underneath.
Bill Cosby
Repeat after me. I promise not to run outside of the house. I promise not to run inside of the house. I promise not to touch, pick up, step on, anything that looks interesting.
Bill Cosby
The mother may be doing ninety percent of the disciplining, but the father still must have a full-time acceptance of all the children.

Bill Cosby
The essence of childhood, of course, is play.
Bill Cosby
My grandfather said, When you become senile, you won't know it.
Bill Cosby
Ours is a youth culture, and like a golf tournament, we honor only low scores.
