More quotes by Tracy Morgan
I just want to be funny, I just want to do comedy.
Tracy Morgan
Because Eddie [Murphy] came from where I come from, the Bushwick section of Brooklyn. People in the projects used to call me Fat Murphy.
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
Comedy clubs are sacred ground. That's where anything goes.
Tracy Morgan
My life growing up was a twisted Bronx version of The Color Purple. It had a much different soundtrack and no trees, but that desperation was the same.
Tracy Morgan
Sometimes I think we're exposed to things we shouldn't be exposed to too early. I think that sets the tone to a person's whole life.
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
The truth is, I've never thought of myself as the Michael Jordan of comedy. And that's a good thing. You know why? Because I'm not. Wasn't that Richard Pryor? Yes, it was. I know what I am: I'm funny!
Tracy Morgan
Having a daughter makes you see things in a different way. This is my only girl. So I don't care what it takes to protect her. You can call it what you want to call it. As long as you treat her the same way I treat her, like my princess, I don't mind.
Tracy Morgan
Michael's the ultimate entertainer. After Michael Jackson, it's Elvis Presley, Frank Sinatra, and Bruce Lee.
Tracy Morgan
I'm a big, big movie fan. I watch 'The Ten Commandments' and the original 'Planet of the Apes' every night.
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
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
My sense of humor was a tool for me getting past my mother and father separating, my older brother having cerebral palsy, and the bullies in the schoolyard. I had to make them laugh to keep them off my ass. I brought that to my professional career.
Tracy Morgan
I do stand up sometimes out of anger. Sometimes the greatest stuff comes from a dark place.
Tracy Morgan
My father was the role model I looked up. My dad was an entertainer, too. I patterned my life after him. He wanted me to do better than he did. He never sold a record in his life, but to me he was still a rock star.
Tracy Morgan
I like to do stand-up for people who live real life.
Tracy Morgan
If you can survive 'Saturday Night Live,' then you're good as far as show business is concerned.
Tracy Morgan
Live every week like it's shark week.
Tracy Morgan
I'm not focused on the outrageousness. I'm just focused on being funny, and raising my kids. I don't even read the newspaper, I don't read that crap.
