More quotes by 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 have a very good life, a high quality of life. I have both money and time. No one has that.
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 got a lot of positive people around me.
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 don't care if I ever work in TV again.
Dave Chappelle
I just like seeing people. I just like meeting people. I like finding out new walks of life and new ideas.

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
What did the 5 fingers say to the face. S L A P!
Dave Chappelle

Dave Chappelle
I think every group of black guys should have at least one white guy in it.
Dave Chappelle
I care about the work I do. But I'm not going to say that money's not an issue.
Dave Chappelle
Comedy is a very approval-oriented field.
Dave Chappelle
You've got to say 'yes' to your destiny. Life's happening right now, look around you. There goes some life. Come on, Mamma, live!
Dave Chappelle
Listen, here it is: Technically, I never quit. I'm seven years late for work.
Dave Chappelle
I want to tell my jokes. I want to have time with my children. I want to entertain people. And at one point, I'll walk away from show business. But I don't want to walk away empty-handed.
Dave Chappelle
There's something about doing stand-up that's cathartic.
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
The hardest thing to do is to be true to yourself, especially when everybody is watching.
