Favorite Quotes from Trevor Noah 

“In my world, a woman was the most powerful thing that I knew. Still is. A woman made the money in my house; a woman made my food. Women were behind a lot of what spurred South Africa toward democracy.” – Trevor Noah

“I’ve come to learn as an adult that love is a hell of a drug. It’s one of the most dangerous things that human beings can have. It’s also one of the most beautiful things that human beings can possess because love, on one hand, gives you the ability to care for a human being sometimes more than you would care for yourself. Love, unfortunately, sometimes gives you the ability to forgive somebody and blind yourself to the truth.” – Trevor Noah

“As an outsider myself, I always mixed myself with different groups…I’ve never been afraid to go into a different space and relate to those people because I don’t have a place where I belong and that means I belong everywhere.” – Trevor Noah

“Comedy is a great tool. We [comics] are trying to find ways to use humor to enlighten people without preaching to them.” – Trevor Noah
 
“I speak English, obviously, Afrikaans, which is a derivative of Dutch that we have in South Africa. And then I speak African languages. So I speak Zulu. I speak Xhosa. I speak Tswana. And I speak Tsonga. So I’m trying to make that officially my seventh language. And then, hopefully, I can learn Spanish.” – Trevor Noah

3 Insightful Lessons from Trevor Noah 

Now that you know all about Trevor Noah’s net worth, and how he achieved success; let’s take a look at some of the lessons we can learn from him: 

1. People Will Listen If You Speak Their Language

Noah is biracial — his father is white and his mother is black. This made his early life complicated as he grew up in post-Apartheid South Africa.

While on a walk one day, Noah overheard a group of guys says, in their native tongue, that they wanted to mug the light-skinned guy. Noah then started speaking to them in their language, and they all became chummy.

2. Stay True To Yourself

During Noah’s elementary school days, classes were split into two groups: one for whites and some groups of minorities (which included Indians, Asians and mixed children) and another for black kids.

Feeling more comfortable with his black peers, Noah chose the “B class” against the warnings of his teacher.

3. Think Beyond Your Current Circumstances

Apartheid made certain activities, such as skating, nearly impossible for black people in South Africa, but Noah’s optimistic mother, Patricia, didn’t let oppression stop her from showing her son the “things for white people.”
