Gabriel Iglesias
I was very dirty I was a very dirty comic. There was no way I would have gotten on TV with the act I had when I first started.

Wearing a Hawaiian shirt, you don't ever come across as offensive. Nobody sees you as a threat. You see someone in a Hawaiian shirt, and you are like 'this guy is ready to party.'
Gabriel Iglesias
I try not to get political, I don't want to get religious, I don't want to get controversial, I just want to have a show that relates to everybody.
Gabriel Iglesias
I still come out to music that's in Spanish. There's no denying who I am, but I've just made it to where my performance is so anybody can understand it - whether you're 10 years old or 80 years old.
Gabriel Iglesias

It's not an overnight thing. I can legitimately say I've been working my ass off for a long time and the fact that I'm getting this concert movie is perfect because it's coming at just the right time in my life.
Gabriel Iglesias
You know, a lot of people think that just 'cause you work out, lift weights, eat right, and do what people tell you to do that you'll live a long live, maybe you will. But, why do people measure life by the years instead about how good the years were.
Gabriel Iglesias
Once I started doing specials I always incorporated Fluffy into it. But with Stand-Up Revolution, I left it out because I want it to be different for people. I'm there, yes, but it's something different.
Gabriel Iglesias
It's because you alienate half the room talking about sports. Half the crowd will be against you no matter what you say.
Gabriel Iglesias
I talked about the stuff so openly that people are able to connect and relate. I put everything out there [into the network], and if I'm having a bad time, people know about it.
Gabriel Iglesias
I'm always ready for TV. I don't have to edit my jokes - when you work clean, you can work anywhere.
Gabriel Iglesias
[Making people laugh] was a secret dream I kept and I didn't tell anybody about it until I was about 18.
Gabriel Iglesias
TV and film for me are not as exciting as the live stand-up show and getting the immediate reaction of the crowd. TV is a lot of hurry up and wait for your shot and less immediate reaction from people.
Gabriel Iglesias
You can't be bad ass in a car that kills gas like I kill tacos.
Gabriel Iglesias
I like to tell old jokes on stage after about an hour, or an hour and a half. I'll bring those old ones back because the fans love them.
Gabriel Iglesias
I just know you can not be on top forever. There's always going to be the next guy, and if I'm going to go down, I'd like to know I helped the next guy take my spot. You can't prevent the inevitable, but you can join the ship.
Gabriel Iglesias
