When you stop giving and offering something to the rest of the world, it's time to turn out the lights.

How did I ever get sick? I've already had everything.

Young. Old. Just words. Inside we feel like our shoe size.

When I was young I was called a rugged individualist. When I was in my fifties I was considered eccentric. Here I am doing and saying the same things I did then and I'm labeled senile.

When they saw me walking down the street smoking a cigar, they'd say, 'Hey, that 14-year-old kid may be going places.' Of course it's also a good prop on the stage ... When you can't think of what you're supposed to say next, you can puff on your cigar until you think of your next line.

When I was in Vegas women were throwing their hotel keys at me. But it was after they checked out.

It's no surprise that things are so screwed up: everyone that knows how to run a government is either driving taxicabs or cutting hair.
