When I die I intend to take my music with me. I don't know what's out there, but I want to make sure it's in my key.

Bridge is a game that separates the men from the boys. It also separates husbands and wives.

I don't believe in dying. It's been done. I'm working on a new exit. Besides, I can't die now - I'm booked.

Dress simply. If you wear a dinner jacket, don't wear anything else on it ... like lunch or dinner.

When I wasn't working, I put the blame directly where it belonged - I blamed my agent. When I didn't have an agent, I spent time looking for a new agent so I would have somebody to blame.

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

I'm at the age now where just putting my cigar in its holder is a thrill.
