It's one day at a time, that's all there is to it, and so I don't have to worry about it. All I do is, okay, I do not have to drink. And if I feel like it, I postpone it for ten minutes, and that way I find something else to do in the meantime.

I stay in the present, so I don't know about the future.

I would never become an alcoholic like my father because my father deserted us. But diseases, there's no let up.

I kind of miss the old sleazy Times Square, in a way. And yet I don't mind not being accosted by all sorts of strange people.

I tell my children, shut up and let me speak. What I've learned, I have been married for 45 years and in my own family It is that I've learned to stop being judgmental, to listen.

Here am I, a human being and that has a body that is getting old. And I only have one, I can't trade it in.

Never make any reference to the other person's family. "You're just like your - " because that is out, completely.
