I prefer the things around town. I'm not one for going out of town too much.

I think any entertainer just sort of goes along with whatever comes along.

The one appearance that I made for President Kennedy, he, as I understand, had his choice or was asked to make a list of the people he would like to have perform, and I was fortunate enough to be one of them.

I'm sure any vocal teacher that listens to me would rather cut my throat than do anything.

I'd retired for about six or seven years. Coming back to the business, I found that I was sort of not quite a has-been, and it wasn't a new career, it was just kind of difficult to crack the nut, so to speak.

If it's a terrible script, it's a terrible bore.
