More quotes by Donald Glover
I hate it when you really think you're getting something good... and you don't listen to your dudes when you really should.
Donald Glover
Writing is a very strenuous thing - it's like banging your head against a wall. At the end of the day, acting is better, just because nobody ever asked me if I wanted a Pellegrino in the writer's room.
Donald Glover
The thing about stand-up was, I was doing all this sketch and YouTube stuff where I was not being censored and I got to do my own thing, and it was really cool.
Donald Glover
I have to say it's better to be an actor, only because people worry about what time you go to sleep and what you dress like. As opposed to a writer, where it's like, Oh I'm in my New York University sweatshirt and I'm not wearing pants. You're not worried about what you're eating or anything. It's all a part of your process.
Donald Glover
I hope people come to the shows because they feel like there's something there that I can't necessarily articulate, but it's real and it's fun.
Donald Glover
If I'm a faggot spell it right, I got way more than two G's
Donald Glover
It makes me wonder what this rapping shits a hobby for, oh that's right, because I'm gifted in another field, and another field, and another field.
Donald Glover
Black culture is a fight. We want to hold on to what we are, but sometimes the things that we are can be totally negative. You have to think: can't we try something new and not be seen as suspect?
Donald Glover
The thing about stand-up was, not only was I getting to write it without anybody saying I couldn't do it, but I got to perform it. It just kind of became therapy for me. I had just gotten through a break-up and I was talking about it a lot.
Donald Glover
I would never challenge any rapper to a rap-off. It's weird, I'm not that type of rapper.
Donald Glover
I try to be me to the utmost.
Donald Glover
I hope in general that my music allows somebody to follow what they really like doing.
Donald Glover
I feel like guys don't think it's cool to use emojis. I'm like, that's so whack. Emojis help so much. They really do give context to something.
Donald Glover
One thing my dad once said to me, You either want to be right, or you want to be happy. To be happy, there's gotta be a conversation.
Donald Glover
I refuse to go back to not liking who I was.
Donald Glover
I personally don't believe people really grow. They just learn stuff when they were a kid, and hold on to it, and that affects every relationship they have.
Donald Glover
People are sometimes like: Oh man, you're so talented and you do a bunch of stuff. I'm not! I swear to god, I'm not. I just like learning stuff, I like doing stuff. And I feel like everybody can definitely do it.
Donald Glover
Suicide is kinda dumb to me. If I wanna kill myself I will. It's not hard to die, I could do it like right now. But why is everybody pretending like everything's ok, Everything's not ok. We are more connected than we've ever been, But I feel more alone than I've ever been.
Donald Glover
I'm very impatient, so I was like, 'I want to be able to do whatever I want now.' But even the biggest stars - you look back and they weren't overnight.
Donald Glover
Usually, if I think something is really funny, I'm not gonna test it. I'll just test it when I'm onstage.
Donald Glover
