Richard Pryor: Live on the Sunset Strip

Richard Pryor:
I went to penitentiary one time, not me personally, but me and Gene went there for a movie. Arizona State Penitentiary - population: 90-percent Black people. But there are no Black people in Arizona. They have to bus motherf***ers in!

Richard Pryor:
When that fire hit your ass, it will sober your ass up *quick*! I saw something: I went, "Well, that's a pretty blue. You know what? That looks like *fire*!" Fire is inspirational. They should use it in the Olympics, because I ran the 100 in 4.3.

Richard Pryor:
When I was in Africa, this voice came to me and said, "Richard, what do you see?" I said, I see all types of people." The voice said, "But do you see any n*ggers?" I said, "No." It said, "Do you know why? 'Cause there aren't any."

Richard Pryor:
There are only two pieces of p*ssy you're gonna get in your entire life: that's your first and your last.

Richard Pryor:
So Black people - we the first people who had thought, right? We was the first ones to say, "Where the f*** am I, and how do you get to Detroit?"

Richard Pryor:
Thank *God* we got penitentiaries! I asked a dude - I said, "Why did you kill everybody in the house?" The guy said, "They was home!"
