I have a problem, if the light goes on on TV and it blinks midnight, I don't know how to fix it.
Don RicklesI would describe myself as a guy that's very normal but has the tendency to rib people, but never in a mean-spirited way.
Don RicklesWhen someone says to me, do you do stand-up I say absolutely not. I like to think of it as a theatrical performance. With me the show changes maybe five to ten percent every night. Of course, whatever I see in front of me and sometimes I get on a little run about it and it changes the show. And my delivery is such that people who have seen me many times say Gee, I never heard that before. Actually, they have, but I might have changed it around.
Don RicklesI grew up in an Orthodox family, as I grew older, I became Conservative and that's how it ended up. But I've developed that Jewish feel to my act from my surroundings and my family.
Don RicklesWe show a lot of film [with Regis Philbin] from my career which is most enjoyable. I enjoy watching it.
Don RicklesI always enjoy being full of fun, but I have my serious moments. Some women go for the studious kind of guy, I certainly was not that. If a girl is looking for somebody different and maybe a little more exciting for themselves - someone more on the fun side, I would suggest that they look for a type like Don Rickles.
