184 Quotes by Dave Chappelle

My own life is accessible to people still. I could see a guy walking down the street and, even though I’m famous, I got more in common with this guy than, like, Brad Pitt.

I love being famous – it’s phenomenal.

Most people don’t know what it’s like to stand up there and speak their mind. I have a venue to do that. I get paid to do that. It’s not like I’m doing heavy lifting up there. It’s not like I’m solving the world’s problems. It’s like I’m hanging out with a bunch of people and it’s cool.

There’s something about doing stand-up that’s cathartic.

I don’t want the money. I don’t want the drama. I just want to do my show. I want to have fun again.

You can’t get unfamous. You can get infamous but you can’t get unfamous.

Stand-up is the kind of gig that’ll show you where you’re at.

There’s a lot of people who don’t want anything from me but to laugh and have a good time. You see them at the show and they like – they dress up to come see your show and stuff. And they pack these auditoriums and it’s a lot of fun, man. It’s like, this is how I started, and it’s still fun for me.

I’m rich biotchh!
