I get a little heated when I talk about the past. But I wanted to be clear - I'm not mad at anybody - not anymore.

More quotes by Dave Chappelle
All white people talk about when they get high is other times that they got high.
Dave Chappelle
If someone sits and stares at you while you eat, you won't even eat the way you normally do, because it'll make you so uncomfortable. If I look at my dog when he's eating, he will look at me like, Dave, I will bite you. What are you looking at? I'm trying to eat. It's something that dehumanizes a person, being on display like that.
Dave Chappelle
I felt in a lot of instances I was deliberately being put through stress because when you're a guy who generates money, people have a vested interest in controlling you.
Dave Chappelle
Chivalry is dead. Women killed it.
Dave Chappelle
I don't normally talk about my religion publicly because I don't want people to associate me and my flaws with this beautiful thing. And I believe it is beautiful religion if you learn it the right way.
Dave Chappelle
Is this the 5:00 Free Crack Giveaway?
Dave Chappelle
Listen, here it is: Technically, I never quit. I'm seven years late for work.
Dave Chappelle
I think every group of black guys should have at least one white guy in it.
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 enjoy my own thoughts sometimes.
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
The only thing harder than leaving show business is coming back.
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
There's something about doing stand-up that's cathartic.
Dave Chappelle
I care about the work I do. But I'm not going to say that money's not an issue.
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
My kids look actually happy. And I learned early on that perfectionism and parenthood is a toxic combination for everybody involved. In other words, so many things can flourish naturally. All you gotta do is make sure the soil's right. I view myself more like a guide than a ruler.
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
Comedians by and large are some of the most sensitive people on earth. Even if they're socially callous.
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
