In black neighborhoods, everybody appreciated comedy about real life. In the white community, fantasy was funnier. I started looking for the jokes that were equally hilarious across the board, for totally different reasons.

More quotes by Will Smith
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't driving around on a bus and having a campfire kind of adding to the environment problem?
Will Smith
Make a choice of what you want, who you want to be and how you're going to do it. The universe will get out of your way.
Will Smith
I know who I am, I know what I believe, that's all I need to know. From there, you do what you need to do.
Will Smith
My skin is hard when it comes to my music. But with my movies, I'm still a virgin in a lot of ways. I'm not used to being shot down for no reason.
Will Smith
Because I know that hope and fear are connected, I put my mask of hope on.
Will Smith
Don't let failure go to your heart, and don't let success go to your head.
Will Smith
A rapper is about being completely true to yourself. Being an actor is about changing who you are.
Will Smith
There’s a redemptive power that making a choice has rather than feeling like you’re an effect to all the things that are happening. Make a choice. Just decide what it’s gonna be, who you’re gonna be, how you are going to do it. Just decide. And from that point, the universe will get out of your way.
Will Smith
I want the world to be better because I was here. I want my life, I want my work, my family, I want it to mean something and if you are not making someone else's life better then you are wasting your time.
Will Smith
Money and success don't change people they merely amplify what is already there.
Will Smith
When I was young, and I'd get A's, I'd get this good feeling of all the things that I could be. And then I'd never became any of them.
Will Smith
Smiling is the best way to face every problem, to crush every fear, to hide every pain.
Will Smith
Well, all I know is what I read in the papers.
Will Smith
There is nothing like having to change your physical form to put you in contact with every weak part of yourself, to train yourself in discipline. Put somebody on a treadmill and I'll tell you how good they are at any other thing they do in life.
Will Smith
I'm not afraid to die on a treadmill.
Will Smith
I'm starting to be a lot more comfortable with allowing people to decide for themselves and almost creating a situation that forces people to decide for themselves whether they like it or don't like it or agree with the character or disagree with the character.
Will Smith
You've got to run your career. What happens is a lot of times artists have this talent and they're just looking for somebody to take it and do something with it. And you have to be the creative force.
Will Smith
I just think that the gifts that God has given me and the attention that I have, I just don't feel like acting is the limit of it. I just feel like there's so much more that I could do...And, you know, every day I wake up and I try to do a little more and I just want the world to be different and better because I was here.
Will Smith
Just because the kid's cute, doesn't mean you're not the father.
Will Smith
The separation of talent and skill is one of the greatest misunderstood concepts for people who are trying to excel, who have dreams, who want to do things. Talent you have naturally. Skill is only developed by hours and hours and hours of beating on your craft.
