Arsenio Hall

“I think the thing that I'm most proud of is that I was able to bring a lot of people to late-night who had never been there before.”

“You can't do a late-night show if you're not in touch with what's happening in the world.”

“Let's get busy!”

“The first thing I do when I get up in the morning is I brush my teeth and I sharpen my tongue.”

“My bark is worse than my bite... most of the time.”

“I'm a Cleveland guy. I'm from the Midwest. I'm a blue-collar guy.”

“What I love about stand-up is that you can be raw and unfiltered. It's like the last of the real art forms.”

“I know that I'm not the king of late-night television. I'm just a guy who's trying to make a living.”

“When you're a comedian, you're always looking for the next laugh.”

“I'm a workaholic. I love to work. I'm a late-night guy. I like to work when everyone else is sleeping.”

“I'm not a political comedian. I'm a social comedian.”

“I think humor is a great way to deal with pain.”

“I think the most important thing is to be yourself. People can spot a fake a mile away.”
