I don't know who the hell Paul Lynde is, or why he's funny, and I prefer it to be a mystery to me.

I don't always prepare such rich meals. Sometimes I'll just serve a simple quiche, salad and dessert for dinner. During the week I try to eat lightly.

I often go on a liquid fast a couple of days a week. I never take just water. Instead, I'll have maybe six glasses of vegetable and fruit juices a day.

I have an ulcer. It has an IQ of 185.

Comedy is exaggerated realism. It can be stretched to the almost ludicrous, but it must always be believable.

The dining room in my old house was truly magnificent, but by far the worst room for conversation. I'd get up from the table, a very long table, and somebody would always say, Paul, I never got to talk to you.

I'm used to living alone, and I like it that way. You become so selfish living alone...I'd make a terrible husband anyway.
