I have also heard and read various accounts of why they [Sheldon Leonard and Carl Reiner] liked me. My favorites? I wasn't too good-looking, I walked a little funny, and I was basically kind of average and ordinary. I guess my lack of perfection turned out to be a winning hand.

We spent a lot of time together and had a great time with Mary Tyler Moore. And just working with her was like improv.

I married somebody half my age, and everybody thought I was crazy, but she is just an absolute angel.

I don't have any children; I have four middle-aged people.

I've had a lot of writers, in particular, who said they got into writing because of the 'Van Dyke Show.' They said it looked like fun.

I would love to be Moses.
