More quotes by Dick Gregory
Coconut milk is the only thing on this planet that comes identically to mother's milk.
Dick Gregory
I feel that the same God-force that is the mother and father of the Pope is also the mother and father of the loneliest wino on the planet.
Dick Gregory
I won't say I'm out of condition now - but I even puff going downstairs.
Dick Gregory
Education means to bring out wisdom. Indoctrination means to push in knowledge.
Dick Gregory
...Humans were the only creatures in the world that ate their food cooked. You'd never find a Gorilla frying up some bananas for dinner or a lion charcoal-broiling a zebra steak. Cats don't often run to the oven with a mouse or bird they've captured, and a dog wouldn't naturally prepare its rabbit dinner in a stew.
Dick Gregory
Let me tell you, never before in the history of this planet has anybody made the progress that African-Americans have made in a 30-year period, in spite of many black folks and white folks lying to one another.

Dick Gregory
When I went south in the 1960s, I knew I could die. If I went down there and did what I did up in Chicago and made all of those hatin' white folks laugh, then I would have been defeated.
Dick Gregory
Revolution ain't nothing but an extent of evolution Evolution is a fact of nature. So when old folks tell me that they don't understand hip hop and the music is too loud, well I guess it means you're not supposed to be in there.
Dick Gregory
What happens to Black Folks today, happens to White Folks tomorrow.
Dick Gregory
Black folks tell their kids they have to be twice as good as a white person? Well, if I tell a child of mine that, or that they have to be careful - that this is what a cop would do if you do this - they think something is wrong with them. I tell them death is better.
Dick Gregory
Pets are found to suffer from all the ailments known to the human.
Dick Gregory
I would have painted the White House black. I would have!
Dick Gregory
I consider myself always a humorist. And I think anybody who tells jokes or makes people laugh is humor.
Dick Gregory
Life isn't a race. It's a relay.
Dick Gregory
In most places in the country, voting is looked upon as a right and a duty, but in Chicago it's a sport.
Dick Gregory
You got to die of something because if you die of nothing, they won't pay your insurance.
Dick Gregory
The NAACP is a wonderful organization . . . But do you realize if tomorrow morning we had complete integration, all them cats would be outta work?
