Percentages

According to Wikiquote, Richard Pryor said:
I'd like to make you laugh for about ten minutes. Though I'm gonna be on for an hour.
The man was Richard Pryor, but he knew to keep expectations at a realistic level. Maybe I should say "and" instead of "but."

'who' would have worked too.

Another seriously missed philosopher/comedian is George Carlin:

"The reason I talk to myself is because I’m the only one whose answers I accept."

Carlin remained remarkably clearheaded throughout his life, and didn't hold back. It would be nice to still have him around. Maybe not as nice for him...
