Poverty can teach lessons that privilege cannot.

I always loved to gamble. I never got close to a horse. Fate dealt me a terrible blow when it gave me a good horse the first time out. I thought how easy this is. Now I love being around them.

For 50 years, acting was the reason I got up in the morning.

I know know why ... if something not broke, don't fix it. Twelve Angry Men was the perfect movie. The cast was just the best cast you could possibly get together. The director was Sidney Lumet, the best director around. So why they made the remake I don't know.

A world without Tony Randall is a world that I cannot recognize.

We treat old people so badly. There is nothing easy about 80.

I was happy because I was acting. Most of the time for nothing. But I was learning and to learn that you can learn opens up the world for you.
