Dave Chappelle
What did the 5 fingers say to the face. S L A P!
Dave Chappelle
Listen, here it is: Technically, I never quit. I'm seven years late for work.
Dave Chappelle
I always take a relationship to the next level. If that works out, I take it to the next level after that, until I finally reach that level when it becomes absolutely necessary for me to leave.
Dave Chappelle
I'm an introspective dude.
Dave Chappelle
I've done 10 or 11 pilots for network television, which is ridiculous.
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
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 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
Being famous is great, it's not like bad or horrible or anything.
Dave Chappelle
I started when I was 14. I figured out that's what I wanted to do when I was 14. Even when I was six, I can remember people telling me, You're gonna be a comedian, and all this stuff.
