Happiness is being stuck in an elevator and discovering the ravishing blonde with you is a liquor salesman with a case of samples.

New York is an exciting town where something is happening all the time, most unsolved.

I loved the towns I grew up in as a boy, and after I became a celebrity, I went back several times. I would have had the time of my life seeing the old places and the old faces again, but the attitude of those same people was, "I guess you're so big we bore you now."

The price of Christmas toys is outrageous - a hundred dollars, two hundred dollars for video games for the youngsters. I remember a Christmas years ago when my son was a kid. I bought him a tank. It was about a hundred dollars, a lot of money in those days. It was the kind of tank you could actually get inside and ride in. He played in the box it came in. It taught me a very valuable lesson. Next year he got a box. And I got a hundred dollars' worth of scotch.

Happiness is discovering the prune juice your doctor ordered you to drink has fermented.

I see a lot of new faces. Especially on the old faces.

I don't think it's you that changes with success - it's the people around you who change. Because of your new status, they change in relation to you.
