“My goal is to make everyone and anyone a Kevin Hart fan.”

I got a dog with a Napoleon complex. I have a Napoleon complex. We’re small. Anything big that we feel is threatening us, we want to fight. We’re not a pushover.

I don’t change or cater my actions to fit my surroundings. I’m myself 24/7. People appreciate that.

The original ‘About Last Night’ was phenomenal.

My dad was never married. He was kind of a rolling stone. But he was never disrespectful. At the same time, even though he had women in his life when I was a kid, there wasn’t any consistency.

This younger generation that’s around, that’s tweeting, Facebooking and Vine-ing, the fans appreciate that because they feel like they can get to you.

A reputation as a hard worker is a good reputation to have.

You have black people, white people, Chinese people, Hispanic people; we’re all brought up differently.’

I read so much stuff that black women say, especially about my relationship. ‘Oh, he left his black wife to go be with some exotic chick.’ First of all, my girl is black: she’s Jamaican.

I’m not a good storm-outer… because I forget stuff.

I’m a businessman as well as an entertainer. The reason why is because I want to own whatever I’m doing. I don’t want to work for other people forever.

I feel like whatever you’ve done in your career, good or bad, it’s nothing but preparation for the big events to come.

You do it to challenge yourself. You do it because, naturally, in the profession of acting, you want to show growth. You want to say that you take the craft seriously.

My mom was very strict. She didn’t let me watch anything rated R or anything with cussing.

Every relationship should eventually become a long-term relationship. Any director that I meet now isn’t just a director. He’s potentially a friend, and someone I can call to do a project that I want or that I have.

I’ve turned down shows offering large amounts of money.

No man wants to settle down. It happens. Eventually you’re going to bump into somebody that makes you go, ‘Hmm, I don’t mind seeing this person every day.’

Should anyone attempt to deceive you by false expressions, and not be a true friend at heart, act in the same manner, and thus art will defeat art. [If you would catch a man let him think he is catching you.]

Savasana is being without was, being without will be. It is being without anyone who is.

I’m going to make a very bold statement: Hip-hop has done more than any leader, politician, or anyone to improve race relations.

If anyone asks me whether I like being a popular writer, I ask them whether they think I’d rather be an unpopular writer.

You make me happy, even when you’re awful. I would rather be with you – even the you that you seem to think is diminished – than with anyone else in the world.

Mama always taught her children that words were pretty, but anyone can talk. She said, pay attention to that man or woman who acted, who did, who performed. She taught us to trust in thing we could see, not that we heard.

It`s always worth while before you do anything to consider whether it`s going to hurt another person more than is absolutely necessary.

If anyone asks you what kind of music you play, tell him ‘pop.’
