Richard Pryor R.I.P.
"Life is not the ultimate test. The ultimate test is whether your ass will survive Death. Nobody we know has passed this test, least of all this sorry mother."
Richard Pryor was the greatest comedian of all time. He proved how powerful the art of stand-up coemdy could be by being such a masterful storyteller, even a self-conscious stroyteller as in the character "Mudbone." Pryor put hismelf through Hell with drugs and an interesting (to say the least!) romantic life but instead of denying it he just cracked his skull open and let us all see what his inside him. He turned his pain into brilliant comedy. For anyone who is a creative person and wants to communicate stories from yourself to others Richard Pryor is a true inspiration.
