The funnier the material, the funnier I could make it.

The original Dean Martin Comedy Hour handed me some hysterical sketches. I've got highlights on tons of these variety shows, given to me by their great writers. I'd love to be doing all that again.

I got everybody on my side through comedy.

I really learned the power of the tube on Sesame Street and how it can influence a very young mind.

My nephews all look at me differently now. Before, they couldn't relate to me, and now I'm like a god.

I can laugh on cue, and it sounds real. People laugh with me.

Some of those STINKIN' press people just had to make fun of my decision in joining the show. They also made fun of other choices in my life that I was proud of then and still am now!!!
