The villain of any story is often the most compelling character.

I am not beautiful, so I don't know why I'm making myself ugly. But the mustache stays.

I would be good for maybe not the center square but an upper square on 'Hollywood Squares.'

I still have a fondness for books. Many a time I will be antiquing, and I'll say, 'What's that old-timey curio over there? What is that, a candlestick telephone, one of those old pull-chain toilets? Oh no, it's a book. I used to help make those things! I will buy it and use it to decorate my chain of casual family-dining restaurants.

I think for the foreseeable future, the truth is going to be awful and funny all at the same time.

The reality is that if you want to be in a reality-based community, you've got to respect reality and that means calling it bad when you see the past ahead and it doesn't look good and acknowledging when it's going to work.

My fame is due to broadcast television.
