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

Eddie Murphy

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
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 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
I haven't read a newspaper in 20 years. I don't look at the computer or anything. You have to have a filter on what you let in.
Eddie Murphy
This is how you answer a door in my neighborhood. WHO IS IT?
Eddie Murphy
The thing about kids is that they express emotion. They don't hold back. If they want to cry, they cry, and if they are in a good mood, they're in a good mood.
Eddie Murphy
You might have seen a housefly, maybe even a superfly, but I bet you ain't never seen a donkey fly! Ha, ha!
Eddie Murphy
All inspiration comes from a higher power. The body is a shell. The creative spot is from God - You hear voices, everybody does. When you get older, you refer to it as intuition.
