More quotes by Keegan-Michael Key
I'm racist against non-black people.
Keegan-Michael Key
Everybody puts on airs, regardless of race.
Keegan-Michael Key
I have always, or for the most part, identified myself as a biracial person. Much to the chagrin of a lot of African-American people that I meet, because it's almost like there's a betrayal, an intrinsic betrayal: Don't do that, brotha, we need you. We need you here, in this fold.
Keegan-Michael Key
When you're a child, the most important thing is to be able to live a life of comfort. You want to be sure that the moon goes up at night and the sun comes up in the morning and dad comes home from work.
Keegan-Michael Key
There's a sketch where we're playing two terrorists in a cave, and my terrorist is very frustrated as to why we haven't flown a plane into a building in 13 years.
Keegan-Michael Key
[The rumor that Leonardo DiCaprio on set was raped by a bear] was as silly as Lady Gaga bumping him or moving his arm out of the way [at the Golden Globes]. People straight be bored.

I'm very concerned with what's going on the news, but I would not call myself a political animal, per se. I pay more attention during election years, or if I see some topic or issue that I care about. But I would never call myself a political animal or political junkie.
Keegan-Michael Key
Do what you love in your community.
Keegan-Michael Key
The audience loves to figure things out. They love it when a performer leaves a trail of bread crumbs for them, and they get to participate in the comedy.
Keegan-Michael Key
You could figure out at least 80 percent of the context and meaning of a text if people used punctuation, and we wouldn't have had to write our sketch.
Keegan-Michael Key
Ricky Gervais changed our lives. And Mitch Hedberg, who we're like, Oh, that's funny to me on a level I don't think I understand. But I'm clearly pleased by it beyond something that my brain's figured out. He was amazing.
Keegan-Michael Key
Surprise is not humor. I think that there can be a fine line there.
Keegan-Michael Key
I have this little thing that people call Keegan-ese, where I don't speak English words at all. I just say stuff like, You gotta toish the doish and you gotta maloish the hoish.
Keegan-Michael Key
There's a thing called the 'One Drop' theory in African-American culture, which is if you have one drop of black blood in you, you're black.
Keegan-Michael Key
There is no top. You are never going to reach the top if you go for success. That way lies madness.
Keegan-Michael Key
For me, as a child, I certainly thought that there were more black people in the world than white people.
Keegan-Michael Key
When you say to somebody, I'd like to recommend a book to you, you're typically talking to a person who is willing to learn, grow, or change.
