My comedy is a nuclear bomb inside my mind. It's a weapon that's never been tested. It just blows up and flattens everybody.

From Paul Mooney

America has a rap sheet. You can't police the world and tell the world how to act when you're just as bad yourself.

From Paul Mooney

We have a lot of black Anglo-Saxons. Their skin is black, but their brain is white. When I get real mad at them, I call them 'graham crackers.'

From Paul Mooney

From Paul Mooney

From Paul Mooney

Hillary Clinton could say she was a woman and running for president. And Sarah Palin could say she was a woman and running for vice-president. But Obama couldn't say, 'I'm black and I'm running for president.' It couldn't come out of his mouth. He couldn't say that because, if he did, he'd lose votes.

From Paul Mooney

When you know who you are, you know who you are. That's the real dangerous thing in Hollywood, because they all want to create you and mold you.

From Paul Mooney

From Paul Mooney
