More quotes by Tracy Morgan
Comedy clubs are sacred ground. That's where anything goes.
Tracy Morgan
Don't follow in my footsteps. Be original, and create your own path. Be a trailblazer! Do you! Be better than me. Do you! Be happy and have joy in your life.
Tracy Morgan
I never wanted the ha-ha-ha laughter [at my shows]. I always aimed for the gut. I always aimed for the pretty girls in the front row, laughing and leaning over and pooting.
Tracy Morgan
When I'm in the mood to listen to music, I do like to go to the SkyBar [ L.A.].

I love being around people who love to do what I love to do, which is comedy.
Tracy Morgan
A stand-up's job is to hold the mirror up to society and to look at what we're afraid of. That's why we had shows like 'All in the Family' and 'The Jeffersons.' We made fun of ourselves then.
Tracy Morgan
I don't need no stool and mike stand. I don't need all of that to be funny. I've been funny my whole life. This is a gift God gave me. I spread love wherever I'm at. I'm like Marvin Gaye.
Tracy Morgan

Tracy Morgan
When a child is born, it's born with a heart of gold, but the way of this world can turn that heart cold. I'm still a good person, and I thank God for that - He's working with me on it.
Tracy Morgan
I don't take any relationships for granted and I won't ever again. I just enjoy life.
Tracy Morgan
Stand-up is really personal. It's not like somebody else is writing the script and you have to do what they write.
Tracy Morgan
I've been funny my whole life. This is a gift God gave me.
Tracy Morgan
Reality is the scary thing. Not my work, not comedy.
Tracy Morgan
Eddie [Murphy] is an icon. He's one of the reason why I started doing comedy in the beginning. He opened a lot of doors for black people.
Tracy Morgan
I have snakes, three sharks, moray eels, piranhas, five scorpions and a bird spider. All of them are predators. They are dangerous but it's cool to have strong and powerful pets.
Tracy Morgan
Bad news travels at the speed of light good news travels like molasses.
Tracy Morgan
In my heart, I really don't care who you love, same sex or not as long as you have the ability to love, that's the important thing here.
Tracy Morgan
Michael's the ultimate entertainer. After Michael Jackson, it's Elvis Presley, Frank Sinatra, and Bruce Lee.
