Famous quotes by Wanda Sykes:

"I got the job by walking into the director's office, ... I saw this guy behind a desk and said, 'Where is the director, little boy? What is this -- bring-your-kid-to-work day?'"

"I know it sounds like the party line, but I just love doing this show, ... Larry is just an odd man, and in such an inappropriate way. He's funny. He's a genius, and he's so lovable. It's a treat to show up at work and yell at him."

"Louis is so damn talented,"

"Monster-in-Law, I'm not going to say anything bad about that girl. Everybody picks on her. And she doesn't deserve it."

"There is a double standard out there. Comedy is a male business; it's not ladylike what we're doing. But at the end of the day, if it's funny, it's funny, and funny tends to quiet the criticisms."

"It's fun coming back home. The crowds have so much love and support for me. They're really smart crowds and I love playing in D.C. for that reason."

"We have to get out there and touch the people and let them know that you are thinking about them and to try and lift their spirits and get awareness out there to the rest of the country."

"Of course, my mother would love for me to work clean,"

"I'll never forget the first time my family came to see me do stand-up, ... It was an awful bombing. It was like a damn terrorist attack. I was onstage in Washington, D.C., and the audience was talking. Some of them even turned their backs to me. I was paralyzed. I couldn't even move. I just kept talking until I heard my mother yell out, 'Wanda! Get off the stage!'"

"I guess because of my act, people think that I say things they want to say, and that they can just come up and say anything to me."

"I'm here today because I refused to be unhappy. I took a chance."

"It wasn't until I became more confident with myself and I put myself forward instead of the jokes; at first it was put the jokes out there and I'm just behind the jokes."

"Usually, there's nothing being thrown toward the stage or at me. Then I feel pretty good about it."

"If something stinks, I say it stinks. But I try to massage it a little and not be as cutting, come behind it with a joke: Hey, I cut you deep, but now let me put a couple of stitches in you."

"What drives the creative person is that we see it all."

"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."

"I work hard. The staff and crew see how much energy I put into this project, and it makes them step up."

"Some government workers are dedicated and work hard, but most of them are just waiting to retire."

"It's easier to rip somebody to shreds while you're making them laugh."

"It seems like when I first started, people got into comedy because they wanted to be good comedians."
