Donald Glover's quotes

• L.A. is such a different place. I miss New York so much. I almost teared up when I came back and wanted a Guinness and realized I could drink it and take a cab home. I remembered that I could be a functional alcoholic in New York, like I used to be!
• Writing is a very strenuous thing - it's like banging your head against a wall. At the end of the day, acting is better, just because nobody ever asked me if I wanted a Pellegrino in the writer's room.
• I'm probably going to get in trouble for this but 'American Dad' is one of my favorite shows. It gets very dark in places but the jokes are there.
• I try to be me to the utmost.
• I think it's a comedian's job to make everything funny. Nothing is off-limits.
• I have an obsession with books about kids with Asperger's syndrome.
• I felt like high school for me was like a big whirlpool of me trying to figure out what was OK for me to do.
• Careers very rarely are a waste of time; jobs usually are.
• But I just think I was lucky enough to figure out early on that I wanted to do comedy, so that's what I put all my effort into.
• Black men struggle with masculinity so much. The idea that we must always be strong really presses us all down - it keeps us from growing.
• Also, I realized a lot of kids are listening to me. Whether I want to be or not, they're looking up to me.
• A lot of the rap shows I saw as a kid were boring, but if you went to a Rage show or a Justice show, the kids were losing their minds.
• The thing about stand-up was, I was doing all this sketch and YouTube stuff where I was not being censored and I got to do my own thing, and it was really cool.
• I'm very impatient, so I was like, 'I want to be able to do whatever I want now.' But even the biggest stars - you look back and they weren't overnight.
• I personally don't believe people really grow. They just learn stuff when they were a kid, and hold on to it, and that affects every relationship they have.
• I call 'Community' the best day job in the world, because between takes, I get to write music. I get to write sketches. I get to write movies. It's the best job ever.
• Black culture is a fight. We want to hold on to what we are, but sometimes the things that we are can be totally negative. You have to think: can't we try something new and not be seen as suspect?
• When anybody pays you to be creative, you're very lucky.
• We put stereotypes on ourselves. Everybody does that. But I think it's just a little harder for black kids to just be who they are.
• Usually, if I think something is really funny, I'm not gonna test it. I'll just test it when I'm onstage.
• Twitter does have an effect on everything - things you put out there, they are out there for good.
• The only reason I'm able to do music is because I'm making money on 'Community.' If I wasn't, I couldn't pay for things.
• If you're on Twitter, what you're saying is, 'I'm important enough for you to care what I think.'
• I'm not a big party animal, but I like to create moments people can hold on to.
• I'm not scared of the future at all. The future is progress if you treat it right.
• The only reason I'm able to do music is because I'm making money on Community (2009). If I wasn't, I couldn't pay for things.
• I call Community (2009) the best day job in the world, because between takes, I get to write music. I get to write sketches. I get to write movies. It's the best job ever.
• I'm probably going to get in trouble for this but American Dad! (2005) is one of my favorite shows. It gets very dark in places but the jokes are there.
