More quotes by Tracy Morgan
I'm not a hateful person and don't condone any kind of violence against others.

Tracy Morgan
I don't like doing stand-up for little kids. It's not geared for that.
Tracy Morgan
I don't even deal with politics. I just don't believe in them. I think politics are politricks. My whole thing is power to the people. I don't put my faith in any one man. I keep my faith in God. That's where I keep my faith.
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.

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
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
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
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
Bones heal, but the loss of my friend will never heal.
Tracy Morgan
I grew up in the projects in Brooklyn, and I consider myself lucky and blessed to be where I am - just working.
Tracy Morgan
If you can survive 'Saturday Night Live,' then you're good as far as show business is concerned.
Tracy Morgan
I just want to be funny, I just want to do comedy.
Tracy Morgan
When I'm in the mood to listen to music, I do like to go to the SkyBar [ L.A.].

Too many people focus on the thing, instead of the heavenly glory of it. I don't want to give away what to expect.

I love Ice Cube and Charlie Day. They're brilliant men, great actors and very funny people.
