The best way you hurt rich people is by turning them into poor people
Eddie Murphy
I'm just a man. I think people are reacting to something else when they see me. They're not reacting to me, Eddie Murphy. They don't even know me. It's just luck and the God in me they're reacting to.
Eddie Murphy
Apparently every man was told to bring three women with them. Sounds like a ho-down.
Eddie Murphy
I ain't never been in no cell that had a phone in it. Can I stay for a while? I ordered some pizza.
Eddie Murphy
This is how you answer a door in my neighborhood. WHO IS IT?
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.

I can figure out which Spice Girl I wanna impregnate.
Eddie Murphy
The other day I got out the shower and I bend down to reach for a towel, and I felt a sharp pain in my chest. Shot through my chest and up around my shoulder and down my spine. I thought 'Oh, Lord.' I thought I was dying. I bent over and looked, and I was standing on my own titty.
Eddie Murphy
I've made 30 movies and for the most part my movies work. In a business where success is an exception and not the rule, I've mostly been successful.
Eddie Murphy
Every bad decision I've made has been based on money. I grew up in the projects and you don't turn down money there. You take it, because you never know when it's all going to end. I made Cop III because they offered me $15 million. That $15 million was worth having Roger Ebert's thumb up my ass.
Eddie Murphy
I have enough of a sense to know what works for me and what doesn't, without going into some big thing and analyzing what I do. I'm in a position that allows me to do what I want to do, and I do it.
Eddie Murphy
If I don't die in a plane crash or something, this country has a rare opportunity to watch a great talent grow.
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
I started out as a stand-up comedian. And that's what I'm most comfortable doing.
Eddie Murphy
Are you driving with your eyes open? Or are you, like, using the force?
Eddie Murphy
My wife ain't gonna make love to me if I got no money!
Eddie Murphy
In a movie like this, the relationship between the two guys is crucial. It sinks or swims on how these two guys are together. I think we did a good job.
Eddie Murphy
I'm the artist when I'm doing music that I am when I'm acting. I'm everything.
