Alan King, a comedian I adored, was considered society, and I was considered the Jewish kid from the neighborhood.
Don RicklesI don't really tell a joke, I react to situations. The whole thing is just looking at somebody and showing all our weaknesses and exaggerating them, and that's how it becomes funny.
