I've actually gotten so I don't associate television with entertainment very much.

An effective speaker can do more damage or more good in a well-stated minute than an angry klutz could do in half an hour.

I'm not freakishly short. I had, on my show, used shortness as a joke subject; it didn't really bother me.

I think we live in an age of increasing mediocrity.

Show people tend to treat their finances like their dentistry. They assume the man handling it knows what he is doing.

It's a rare person who wants to hear what he doesn't want to hear.

I'm sure I've all but lost friends by maintaining that, despite their love for it, I always saw Stanley Kramer's 'It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World' as more of an exercise in anti-comedy than humor.
