I don't know how you can look back with regret if you're at a moment when everything seems fine.

Ed Simmons and I became stars in the emerging medium of television. We were new and fresh, just like TV at the time, so we automatically became 'THE' comedy writers for television.

I don't know how you can look back with regret if you're at a moment when everything seems fine.

It seems to me that any full grown, mature adult would have a desire to be responsible, to help where he can in a world that needs so very much, that threatens us so very much.

Culturally, I think 'All in the Family' was universal enough to have good timing at any time.

Granted, the writers, directors, producers, and that community make a great deal of money. But they might be choosing to do a whole lot of other things for the living they make.

I think the greater responsibility, in terms of morality, is where leadership begins.
