Eddie Murphy
I’m a comedian who got into movies, so I don’t really think of myself as an actor.
Eddie Murphy
Whenever I am on camera or doing anything on mic, I don't have any process at all. I just do it and, when I'm finished, it goes away. There is no process. I wish there were some techniques to it. I just turn it on and off, and then I go home.
Eddie Murphy
This is how you answer a door in my neighborhood. WHO IS IT?
Eddie Murphy
Growing up, I liked all the stuff that everyone else was listening to, like Motown, but the biggest group of all was The Beatles.
Eddie Murphy
After all these years, I've done well and I'm cool. I feel comfortable in my skin, I've saved some paper, everybody's healthy, my kids are beautiful and smart, doing different things, it's all good.
Eddie Murphy
I only want to do what I really want to do otherwise, I'm content to sit here and play my guitar all day.
Eddie Murphy
I'm relaxed about my career. I've been making movies for over 20 years, so I've earned at least the right to relax.
Eddie Murphy
I don't think there's ever been someone with as much presence as Elvis Presley, I mean if he walked into a room I think everyone would be looking at only him. Even when he was dying and through all that when you looked at him it seemed all put together. It fascinates me.
Eddie Murphy
Mick Jagger's lips' so big, black people be going, You got some big-ass lips!
