People think being in your seventies means sitting around in a chair with a blanket over your legs, drooling.

When you're 18, you're just so busy being scared and having fun - a crazy mixture - that you never thought of dying.

Everything I've ever done in my whole career, people might not know, I've never written anything down on paper.

Famous people are deceptive. Deep down, they're just regular people. Like Larry King. We've been friends for forty years. He's one of the few guys I know who's really famous. One minute he's talking to the president on his cell phone, and then the next minute he's saying to me, Do you think we ought to give the waiter another dollar?

I do situations and make fun of authority and life.

I 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.

I've never gambled a dime. Never, in all my years in Vegas.
