Life is a great big canvas; throw all the paint you can at it.

To travel is to take a journey into yourself.

You bet I arrived overnight. Over a few hundred nights in the Catskills, in vaudeville, in clubs and on Broadway.

I am a wife-made man.

I'm just an entertainer. All I want to be is funny. I never aspired to play Hamlet.

When I stopped making films, they were getting on to the more realistic films and the explicit films and all. They were depicting life as it is, and some of it was unpleasant. I gradually moved away from that.
