I played a killer twice. Once on 'Matlock,' on Andy Griffith's show, I got to play the killer.

[My mother] once cooked a ham and later found it in my father's shirt drawer. I am not kidding.

I turned down some movies that were quite good. mainly on the basis of taste.

I loved to fall down.

We used to get 27, 28 minutes to do a story in, and now they're lucky if they get 18 or 20 minutes. So I don't think they can really do a beginning, a middle, and an end anymore. There's an awful lot of one-line jokes; almost every line is a punchline. It's not the same, but there's still good comedy around.

I hear music and my feet just start moving.

You have to be able to laugh at yourself. Attitude is almost more important than what happens to you.
