I like getting up in the morning, and I like better having something to do when I get up in the morning.

Life goes on pretty much the same way. I've been working on a couple of films on the side. You may see some more. You may even see another television show.

As H.L. Mencken once said, 'nobody ever when broke underestimating the intelligence of the American people.' Our show [All in the Family] countered that witticism. I think he was wrong.

Nobody doubts my partisanship, but a lot of the activity is nonpartisan.

When I countered that Archie Bunker didn't have to put down a race of people to say that, he replied, 'and you're the dumbest white kid I've ever met.'

But it also became the experience, or was the experience, of the writers who were attracted to this kind of humor. They're all men or women who come from the same kind of experience in their own lives.

In my 90-plus years, I have lived a multitude of lives.
