More quotes by Dave Chappelle
For one year, I want to do this thing where I guest-star on as many television shows as I possibly can. I love television. The fact that television ultimately made me famous was very gratifying for me.
Dave Chappelle
I just always loved stand-up. It's like magic. You say something, and a whole room full of people laughs together. Say something else, they laugh again. The fact that people come to see that and participate in that... I don't know, it's just like magic.
Dave Chappelle
I would go to work on the show and I felt awful every day, that's not the way it was. ... I felt like some kind of prostitute or something. If I feel so bad, why keep on showing up to this place? I'm going to Africa. The hardest thing to do is to be true to yourself, especially when everybody is watching.
Dave Chappelle
I don't really frick with Africa cause people are starving to death and that's not ballin' to me.

Something about New York, man: You can do more comedy there probably than you can anywhere in the world. If you're interested in being funny, New York is the place to go.

I'm Dave Chappelle and I'm a chronic masturbator.
Dave Chappelle
I don't want the money. I don't want the drama. I just want to do my show. I want to have fun again.
Dave Chappelle
I was doing sketches that were funny but socially irresponsible. I felt I was deliberately being encouraged and I was overwhelmed.
Dave Chappelle
I'm happier in the way a guy gets happier when he starts to mature. It doesn't make things easier, but I'm so much better at handling them.
Dave Chappelle
You know you must be doing something right if old people like you.
Dave Chappelle
I still think people do have racial hang-ups, but I think one of the reasons I can joke about it is people are shedding those racial hatreds.
Dave Chappelle
Whether it means having a show, or a movie, or just being on a stage, I need an avenue to say what I have to say.
Dave Chappelle
People don't know what it's like standing up there onstage, when you have a wall of people smiling at you.
Dave Chappelle
I have all these weird fantasies. Going coast-to-coast on my motorcycle and having random barbecues all over America. No show, no nothing.
Dave Chappelle
The language you are about to hear... is disturbing.
Dave Chappelle
Most people don't know what it's like to stand up there and speak their mind. I have a venue to do that. I get paid to do that. It's not like I'm doing heavy lifting up there. It's not like I'm solving the world's problems. It's like I'm hanging out with a bunch of people and it's cool.
Dave Chappelle
I have a very good life, a high quality of life. I have both money and time. No one has that.
Dave Chappelle
The higher up I went, the less happy I was.
