I do miss the rhythms of comedy. And I've never been able to perform very well without an audience. The sitcoms I've done had them. It was like doing a little play.

I worked nightclubs all through my 20s, and I was a teetotaler.

I found out retirement means playing golf, or I don't know what the hell it means. But to me, retirement means doing what you have fun doing.

I can't work with my brother without laughing.

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

Everything's getting homogenized. It seems to me like music and behavior and everything else is getting homogenized.

We all know we're going to die. We're all circling the drain. Some of us are closer than others. I'm 90, I know I'm closer to the drain than most people.
