If I don't get paid I'm going to take a whole lot of Marshall amps home with me on the plane.

My incarceration was actually a positive thing from the beginning. I needed a gimmick to get my act going again, it gave me material.

A lot of prophets have gone to jail.

I've met a lot of jazz musicians in my day, and they're all funny.

Everything that happens to me is very cosmic.

When they put me in jail, that's when they turned me into an activist. Up until the time I went to jail, I was just a comedian.
