You see some of the weirdest people in Detroit casinos.

I think if someone gets kicked in the face it is their fault – they watched the foot come towards their face.

At the end of the day, women are a distraction. Whether you realize it or not.

In my divorce, I stood up and said to my ex-wife, ‘Hey, I messed up. This had nothing to do with you.

You know, I have several projects coming up between 2014 and 2015, and hopefully by 2015, I’ll have another hour of stand-up material where I’ll be able to go on the road and tour again.

I love that I can tell the truth and have people laugh at it.

I don’t want enemies. I want friends, and I want them in all shapes, sizes, and colors, and loving whoever they want to.

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

Any hand that I’ve shaken, any person that I met when I was Joe Blow, now that I’m this guy Kevin Hart, has come back. That’s why I treat everybody with respect. I’m always a nice pleasant guy to meet because when they come back to you, they remember.

It’s a cool thing to see Polynesians – there’s not too many of us, period – but especially doing well in American sports. It’s pretty cool.

How many things we held yesterday as articles of faith which today we tell as fables.

They say some of my stars drink whiskey, but I have found that ones who drink milkshakes don’t win many ball games.

There are countless things we can work on and think about in the swing, but when it’s time to play in competition, you don’t want to think too many thoughts.

To many forms of life of our northern lands, winter means a long sleep; to others, it means what it means to many fortunate human beings – travels in warm climes.

I think there’s too many rules in golf. And I mean that’s easy to say for a player, but putting together a rule book is a tough thing in this game because there are so many different parts of the game.
