If your ship doesn't come in, swim out to it.

Throughout my life, I've been gratified that I've been able to keep the child in me alive and inspire others.

God is in my head, but the devil is in my pants.

Something I'll always remember - when I was a kid, I shook hands with Orville Wright. Forty years later, I shook hands with Neil Armstrong. The guy that invented the airplane and the guy that walked on the moon. In a lifetime, that's kinda wild when you think about it.

Well, the most terrible fear that anybody should have is not war, is not a disease, not cancer or heart problems or food poisoning - it's a man or a woman without a sense of humor.

I've done for the most part pretty much what I intended - I ended up doing comedy, writing and painting. I've had a ball. And as I get older, I just become an older kid.

I have never pretended to be any kind of super-religious kind of man, but I feel very strongly that you can be funny without being dirty.
