I grew up listening to people speaking broken English. I probably picked that up. And I probably speak English almost as a second language.

I used to love Danish. My father used to make a Boston cream pie. You never see that anymore.

They have a kind of Bob Hope and Bing Crosby thing going on.

I became an actor by accident. I suppose I figured since I was in musical comedy from the time I was a teenager, I suppose I figured that I'd always been in that world to some extent.

My life is really quite conservative. I've been married nearly 50 years. I don't have hobbies or children. I don't much care to travel. I've never had a big social life. I really just stay home, except when I go to work.

There are people who are able to plan their career, their future, but I've never had any talent for that. I just do things and hope for the best. Say yes, take a chance, and sometimes it's terrific and sometimes it's not.

Bear suits are funny - and bears as well.
