Take care not to wear stripes that are out of sync with your wrinkles.

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

Age to me means nothing. I can't get old; I'm working. I was old when I was twenty-one and out of work. As long as you're working, you stay young. When I'm in front of an audience, all that love and vitality sweeps over me and I forget my age.

I honestly think it is better to be a failure at something you love than to be a success at something you hate.

It's good to be here. At 98, it's good to be anywhere.

If you were married to Marilyn Monroe, you'd cheat with some ugly girl.

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