"People walked out on Richard Pryor and he's the funniest man alive." — Tracy Morgan

Even when I'm sitting up in this glass castle, I still got my street soldiers telling me what's happening.

I have friends who are black, white, purple, gay, straight, Martian, yellow, old, and young. I have friends who are animals and a few who I believe to be robots. All of them are people to me. In my mind, it's not about what you look like or what you do; it's about who you are inside.

Sometimes I think we're exposed to things we shouldn't be exposed to too early. I think that sets the tone to a person's whole life. Trauma.

What I have learned over the years is to try to stay in the moment.
