Pity? You don't want to be pitied because you're a cripple in a wheelchair? Stay in your house!

Postwar America was a very buttoned-up nation. Radio shows were run by censors, Presidents wore hats, ladies wore girdles. We came straight out of the blue - nobody was expecting anything like Martin and Lewis. A sexy guy and a monkey is how some people saw us.

Every man's dream is to be able to sink into the arms of a woman without also falling into her hands.

Pity? You don't want to be pitied because you're a cripple in a wheelchair? Stay in your house!

I have a loyalty that runs in my bloodstream, when I lock into someone or something, you can't get me away from it because I commit that thoroughly. That's in friendship, that's a deal, that's a commitment. Don't give me paper - I can get the same lawyer who drew it up to break it. But if you shake my hand, that's for life.

For those who understand, no explaination is needed...For those who don't, none will do.

You might as well like yourself; just think about all the time you're gonna have to spend with you.
