More quotes by Wanda Sykes
I'm here today because I hated everything else.
Wanda Sykes
I don't like the saying keep your friends close and enemies closer. I want my enemy on a different planet.
Wanda Sykes
I really can't pinpoint the one moment when I said I want to be a comic.
Wanda Sykes
Actually, I majored in marketing and I have a bachelor of science.

As soon as you say 'I do,' you'll discover that marriage is like a car. Both of you might be sitting in the front seat, but only one of you is driving. And most marriages are more like a motorcycle than a car. Somebody has to sit in the back, and you have to yell just to be heard.
Wanda Sykes
It's easier to rip somebody to shreds while you're making them laugh.
Wanda Sykes
I noticed recently, in the last few shows I did, that I'm starting to get people - not a large group, but quite a few people - who come to see me because they love Curb Your Enthusiasm.
Wanda Sykes
We never hid anything from the kids. I feel whole again, I really do. I've told them, 'Mommy's boo-boo is much better now.'
Wanda Sykes
We got to stop doing that, ladies. You know, men are dogs. Men are dogs. We got to stop it. Men are not dogs. Uh-uh. Dogs are loyal.
Wanda Sykes

Wanda Sykes
Yeah, I had top-secret clearance and everything.
Wanda Sykes
But I think funny and talent will always win out I mean, of course there are hurdles, but I think if you're funny you will get over all of that.
Wanda Sykes
But I understand that relationship I understand how the mother-in-law, daughter-in-law relationship has so many conflicts because it's so forced.
Wanda Sykes
Whether you have a show or not, you can still be somewhere being funny.
Wanda Sykes
I was really gifted at being able to construct a joke, but it's like they weren't even memorable, my first jokes, because they were so about nothing.
Wanda Sykes
I think it's because my comedy is in your face, and it comes from a place that's real.
Wanda Sykes
I'm really funny now.
Wanda Sykes
Whatever I talk about is what I'm interested in at the time. Politics are big with me. But right now being a mom is taking up most of my time... My act is more family-oriented than it is about politics.
Wanda Sykes
Usually, there's nothing being thrown toward the stage or at me. Then I feel pretty good about it.
Wanda Sykes
I'm finally just relaxed and comfortable with who I am.
Wanda Sykes
