More quotes by Bill Cosby
You are more important to yourself than you think you are.
Bill Cosby
You'll have many, many friends, but if your relationship with your mate is one hundred per cent of your heart, you'll never need a friend.
Bill Cosby
Among the guitarists, Wes Montgomery is fantastic. He's always good to let you know what the art form is all about. It's the same still life that everybody is painting, but in comes Wes Montgomery, and it's right there!
Bill Cosby
The heart of marriage is memories and if the two of you happen to have the same ones and can savor your reruns, then your marriage is a gift from the gods.
Bill Cosby
Take your bottom lip and pull it over your head.
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
A grandchild is God's reward for raising a child.
Bill Cosby
I don't wear no condom and I don't plan for no kids.
Bill Cosby
My father wanted me to play pro football, and he didn't like the fact that I'd left school. And he said, It takes a man to play football. And any fool can go up on the stage and make an ass of himself.
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 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
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
I want all this loud profanity in the street stopped. I want people to think about choices.
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
Any husband who says, My wife and I are completely equal partners, is talking about either a law firm or a hand of bridge.
Bill Cosby
There is hope for the future because God has a sense of humor and we are funny to God.
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
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
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
