More quotes by Tracy Morgan
Comedy clubs are sacred ground. That's where anything goes.
Tracy Morgan
I'm not really struggling about my career. The struggles are in my personal life. I can't really pinpoint how long it took me to get where I'm at, and I didn't care how long it was going to take, because it's not about the destination, it's about the journey.
Tracy Morgan
Everything I talk about in stand-up is my experiences as an American, as a father, as a husband, as a black man, as a human being.
Tracy Morgan
My father was the role model I looked up to. 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
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 love my mother. My mother made sure, her stubbornness - she made sure we was going to eat. She made sure we had Christmases. That was my mother. My father wasn't there for that.
Tracy Morgan
I can't watch American Idol... it's like karaoke without the booze.
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 love Ice Cube and Charlie Day. They're brilliant men, great actors and very funny people.
Tracy Morgan
When I was a young kid, my pops introduced me to it. He took me to Harlem, 145th and Edgecombe, to watch the filming of Claudine with James Earl Jones and Diahann Carroll. That was my first taste of seeing a set and the cameras, and I was bit by the acting bug at a young age.
Tracy Morgan
Too many people focus on the thing, instead of the heavenly glory of it. I don't want to give away what to expect.
Tracy Morgan
What am I afraid of? The IRS. Thats it. I dont want those people knockin on my door, man.
Tracy Morgan
I don't like doing stand-up for little kids. It's not geared for that.
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
Outside of show business, I live a normal life.
Tracy Morgan
I've been funny my whole life. This is a gift God gave me.
Tracy Morgan
I do stand up sometimes out of anger. Sometimes the greatest stuff comes from a dark place.
Tracy Morgan
I don't really take the college tours and all that. Those are young people and I'm quite sure they're mature enough to understand, but they haven't seen or lived real life yet.
Tracy Morgan
The truth is if I had a gay son, I would love him just as much as if he was straight… I might have to try to love even more because I know of the difficulty that he would have in society.
Tracy Morgan
And when I was angry, when I was younger, I was in a cocoon. Now I'm a beautiful, black butterfly.
