More quotes by 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
Mediocre people are the most dangerous people in the world.
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
Racial humor was about 35% of my act when I first started. But I realized that it was a crutch. What brought it home was when another comedian said to me, 'If you changed color tomorrow, you wouldn't have any material.' He meant it as a put-down, but I took it as a challenge.
Bill Cosby
All parents experience the same problems.
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
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
I wanted to give the house back to the parents.
Bill Cosby
My wife and I have five children and the reason why we have five children is because we do not want six.
Bill Cosby
There is hope for the future because God has a sense of humor and we are funny to God.
Bill Cosby
The weatherman is always right. It's just his timing that's off.
Bill Cosby
Anyone who has brought up children knows that consistency has absolutely nothing to do with discipline.
Bill Cosby
Don't talk yourself into not being you.
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
I am proud to be an American. Because an American can eat anything on the face of this earth as long as he has two pieces of bread.
Bill Cosby
My mother was an authority on pig sties. This is the worst looking pigsty I have ever seen in my life, and I want it cleaned up right now.
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.
Bill Cosby
This happened to the people. The Constitution says of the people, by the people, for the people... but the people who got the office, got into office and forgot about the people.
Bill Cosby
Why do I have to feed the kids? They just ate twelve hours ago!
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.
