More quotes by Dave Chappelle
Listen, here it is: Technically, I never quit. I'm seven years late for work.
Dave Chappelle
You can't get unfamous. You can get infamous but you can't get unfamous.
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
Comedians by and large are some of the most sensitive people on earth. Even if they're socially callous.
Dave Chappelle
The world can't tell you who you are. You've just got to figure out who you are and be there, for better or worse.
Dave Chappelle
Most of the people around me have a vested interest in how much money I make. You know, so a celebrity could find themselves in a position where people could have meetings about their life without them involved. And when I say their life I mean not their professional life either. They could talk about their personal life.
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 have a very good life, a high quality of life. I have both money and time. No one has that.
Dave Chappelle
The way the people around you position themselves around you to get in your pockets and in your mind is infuriating to me.
Dave Chappelle
I don't care if I ever work in TV again.
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
I was 23. When you're 23, your concern is not for the greater good of humanity. I didn't feel like I was unleashing an evil on society or anything. At the time, that's what I was into, and I did a movie about it.
Dave Chappelle
I don't do drugs, though. Just weed.
Dave Chappelle
All white people talk about when they get high is other times that they got high.
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
People don't know what it's like standing up there onstage, when you have a wall of people smiling at you.
Dave Chappelle
When I'm on stage, I get real happy there. Maybe that's the only time in my adult life I feel like myself.
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 Dave Chappelle and I'm a chronic masturbator.
Dave Chappelle
I support anyone's right to be who they want to be. My question is: to what extent do I have to participate in your self-image?
Dave Chappelle
