More quotes by Marlon Wayans
I was 160lbs when I started and I went up to 195lbs. There were no steroids. But it was hard work, dedication, hitting the gym. You kind of see it.
Marlon Wayans
'Paranormal 1' scared me because I didn't know if it was real or what. 'Blair Witch' was kind of scary for the same reason. It takes the voyeur element away and makes you think, 'Oh crap, this could really happen to me.'
Marlon Wayans
Gotta stay in the gym, stay funny, stay sharp. I just love working.
Marlon Wayans
I was going to be valedictorian in elementary school, but I got into too many fights, and they made me salutatorian. I was smart back in the day. Now I'm just an idiot.
Marlon Wayans

Marlon Wayans
I'm good at coming up with wacky characters and funny dialogue.
Marlon Wayans
Humor helps ease the tension of race and the differences in society. If there wasn't comedy I don't know if Obama could have ever become president.
Marlon Wayans
I hate cooking. But I do make the candied yams every year at Thanksgiving. And they're awesome! You could definitely get diabetes and cavities from them, but they're delicious!
Marlon Wayans
I want to be remembered as a guy who's not going to change your life but who is going to change your mood. As a guy who made you smile and say, I miss him. He was a lot of fun.
Marlon Wayans
I sound like Jesse Jackson or Martin Luther King, but I honestly feel like the world is mature enough. And, for me, I just want to do good roles.
