I like to work a lot with wood. I make furniture that falls apart. I also sew.

My career is pretty much over. I'm out in the Valley eating soft-boiled eggs.

I figure you're only here for a matter of moments. Ever since I was a kid watching movies I've always wanted to make people laugh or have some sort of emotional reaction.

I've never really taken anything very seriously. I enjoy life because I enjoy making other people enjoy it.

People enjoy sitting back knowing they won't hear a lot of four-letter words.

Phyllis Diller came through a mine field of male comedians when she arrived on the comedy scene and she defused them all. She won her place in the Hall of Comedy as the First Lady. I will miss her.

It's hard to be sad when you're laughing, so I enjoy making people happy.
