More quotes by Chris Tucker
I want to do movies that mean something, that make people laugh and cry great movies, period-piece movies and work with the best people out there, who bring the best out of me.
Chris Tucker
I am now half Asian. I have learned all the ancient teachings of Buddi.
Chris Tucker
I wanted to cut down on the profanity, because I think I'm funnier without sayin' a lot of cuss words.
Chris Tucker
I couldn't imagine not having clean water.
Chris Tucker
I reenact everything. I love to paint a picture for my audience. I'm a lot like Richard Pryor in that aspect. I do a lot of acting on stage, acting out and visualizing stuff. I love to do that. I'm into it so much, it just comes out of me.
Chris Tucker
Everybody goes through a lot of the same things, and I talk about those, and that's the key. You have to connect with your audience, and I might take them on a trip with me, tell them I went here and I went there and they'll go with me, you know, to hear the stories.
Chris Tucker
One thing about me, when I make a decision about something, I realize when you make choices in life, that dictates your life.
Chris Tucker
I get on stage and talk about different stuff in my life and what I've been through and what I think about the world. It's picking out highlights of things and how I became who I am and how my daddy raised me.
Chris Tucker
You loan your friend money. You see them again, they don't say nothin' 'bout the money. 'Hi, how ya doin'? How's ya mama doing?' Man, how's my money doin'?
Chris Tucker
In stand-up you can go either way. It's live. Somebody might say something in the crowd, you might respond to it. But in a movie you could be spontaneous too. But you pretty much have to stick to that story or that scene or that script, but in stand-up you can go wherever you want to. It's more freedom.
Chris Tucker
It's crazy because people expect you to be funny all the time and every day is not a funny day. I go to funerals and people are like 'tell a joke' and 'say one of your lines in a movie.' It's a funeral, man!
Chris Tucker
Georgia was a great place to live, but I wanted to get out because I knew the opportunities for what I was doing - stand-up comedy and eventually acting - were in Los Angeles.
Chris Tucker
I've lived a little bit and traveled the world and experienced a lot of things that I can play any role, and I think I can get into stuff that people never thought I would ever do because of my experiences and growth as a person.
Chris Tucker
I want to keep working, I want to keep doing my humanitarian stuff around the world, shining light on different places that have problems. Keep making movies, make people laugh.
Chris Tucker
That’s the last time I let Wesley Snipes help me out with my taxes!
Chris Tucker
I will always do stand-up, even if my acting career takes off. Stand-up is my life.
Chris Tucker
I tell people that stand-up's like golf: you gotta do it every day to get it down - or at least three times a week to get it down.
Chris Tucker
I feel like every time I go out I want to do a good job. I want people to say that he's just as good at stand-up as he is in some of the movies I've seen him in, so I try to do the best every time I go out there.
Chris Tucker
I am Jewish. My real name is Chris Tuckenberg. A lot of people don't know about that.
Chris Tucker
I told a joke and people laughed and it was the best feeling. I knew I wanted to do this as a career. I never knew I could get such a high from telling a joke. There's something so extraordinary about having people listening to you and hanging onto your words - it's a great feeling.
