Imitations only better the original.

Tap dancing all started with the old clog waltz.

Real success is not on the stage, but off the stage as a human being, and how you get along with your fellow man.

The one thing you don't want is that stale sound when you've done a line so much you can't find a fresh approach to it. Drop it.

There are lines that I know are going to get a belly laugh, but after a few shows I get sick of hearing myself say them so I drop them.

Savor the moments that are warm and special and giggly.

You have to be able to look back at your life and say, "Yeah, that was fun."
