About Chris Rock: Christopher Julius is an American comedian, actor, screenwriter, producer, and director.
Comedians tend to find a comfort zone and stay there and do lamer versions of themselves for the rest of their career.
I have my own demons and dark moods. It's weird.
Bill Cosby was the first comedian I was exposed to, because he doesn't curse.
Here's what I knew about doing a play: I knew it would make me a better actor.
I'll go back to comedy clubs when they get a real no-camera policy, the same way they did with smoking.
If you properly clean a room, it gets dirtier before it gets cleaner.
I'm severely overrated. I'm just above a hack.
I can't cook, but I have a nice book of menus... and I can plate and set the table.
America is the greatest country in the whole world.
I'm severely overrated. I'm just above a hack. That should be the name of my new DVD: 'Chris Rock: Slightly Above Hack'.
I'm never proper or careful, but I never curse in front of my mother, either.
When I do stand-up, I'm basically doing a one-man show.
No film critic's going to say it, but 'Madagascar 3' is better than 'The Artist.'
The key to staying together is making sure you guys like each other and need each other.
I'm an independent, but I got to admit I lean Democratic.
If I find a comedy club where no one's camera works, I'll go.
I'd like to be in a Spike Jonze movie. But I live in a Nancy Meyers movie.
Pretty girls have problems too.
My first year on 'SNL', I made $90,000 dollars. And I bought a red Corvette for $45,000 dollars. I'm thinking, 'I've got 45 grand left!' Taxes didn't even come into my equation. At the end of the first year of making 90 grand I was 25, 30 in the hole...
I kind of keep my personality in my pocket a lot. When I start to do stand-up, that's not my true personality either. It's the personality of a guy who hasn't been able to say what he wanted to say.
Anything you can suck at should make you nervous.
