that fearlessness to entertain the way that you want to has definitely pierced my life to the point where I played a werewolf choreographer last night and I was very proud to do it and I learned all of that from you you know I hold your first two seasons of the Chappelle show up against any sketch comedy show I would say in history it's just brilliant I had no idea so many old white fans I feel like I died and went to Brooks Brothers but I think honestly gets thrown around a lot people talk about honesty and comedy but a lot of great comedians don't always tell the truth the Rodney Dangerfield I lift it up was actually very well respected he lied the whole time when we talk about honesty we talk about not being afraid to tell people the truth about how we feel because that's the connection that comedians can have with people and I think nobody does it better than you ever and that's what we learn from because we all know that we're a part of the joke Dave makes it he's willing to make fun of everybody whether you know whether you're white or gay end of list he's you can tell everybody in this room everything there is to know about comedy there's one thing that you'll never know about comedy and that's doing comedy with the Dave Chappelle to look up to so I thank you for that thank you so much [Applause] and I'm here to celebrate Mark Twain to me that's comedy if you don't believe me the Mark Twain is hilarious I would just like to read a brief passage from Huckleberry Finn take note Huck Huck Finn turned to his friend Jim or as we called him you don't have to read the whole passage [Applause] [Music]
