They Say If You Don't Have Your

I Became The Storyteller Of South Side Chicago. I Used An Old Kiwi Liquid Shoe Polish As A Microphone. I'd Go Around The House Interviewing Everybody, Telling Stupid Jokes, Doing Voices. I Mimicked Sidney Poitier, Sammy Davis Jr., People On 'laugh-in,' Flip Wilson.

That's The Whole Key To Anything: Don't Be Afraid To Fail. And Is Not Afraid To Fail.

I Want People To Say At The End Of My Day, You Know, Like I Used To Say About Sidney Poitier And James Cagney And Joan Crawford And Red Skelton And Those Guys And Bill Cosby. They Did Quality And Substance. You Always Remember Them.

I Can Act. I've Been Acting For A Long Time, But Like Anything Else, Don't Nobody Owe You Nothing. You've Go To Pay Your Dues. You Go From A To Z; You Don't Go From M To Z.

You're Never Going To See Me Playing A Buffoon.
