I love the writing. I love the idea of typing and seeing it on the computer and printing it out myself and, you know, moving sentences around. I like that.

I liked myself better when I wasnt me.

Only I can change my life. No one can do it for me.

In '57, I got a job at the Blue Angel nightclub, and a gentleman named Ken Welch wrote all my material for me. I lived at a place called the Rehearsal Club that was actually the basis for a play called Stage Door.

I couldn't get the laughter out of my head. It wasn't career. It wasn't even a choice. It was a calling.

My interesting diet tips are eat early and don't nosh between meals. I mean, I can pack it away.

Comedy is tragedy plus time.
