Perseverance and Entertaining

I said that he is entertaining because he is entertaining to watch, and has a funny personality.

Life Lesson
- A life lesson I can learn from Bill Cosby is to follow my dreams. He followed his dreams and didn't let anything hold him back, and that is a lesson that I think people should learn. That it's good to have a dream, but even better to follow it.
