Hollywood is a cross between a health farm, a recreation center and an insane asylum. It's a company town, and I happen to like the company!

I've always loved reprehensible people because they're so much more interesting to play on screen.

I enjoy making people laugh. The trick is to tell them jokes against yourself. If you praise yourself, your stories aren't funny.

I sit waiting for things that I can't refuse.

You have to remember, I never became successful or wealthy till I was 30.

I'd never been in one of those great big blockbusters.

My wife, my daughters, even my grandchildren are funny. You've got to keep a sense of humor because anger destroys you.
