I know unless I’m true to myself I couldn’t be happy. Too much emphasis is placed today on externals and too little on character.
I think everybody needs a passion. Whether it’s one passion or a hundred, that’s what keep life interesting.
If you have one good series, you know, it’s a blessing. Two good series is unusual. Three is a phenomenon.
I like double entendre because then the people who get it enjoy it, and the people who don’t get it don’t know about it.
All creatures must learn to coexist. That’s why the brown bear and the field mouse can share their lives in harmony. Of course, they can’t mate or the mice would explode.
I think the best kind of comedy is the least self conscious. I think if you just sort of let the comedy happen without the elbow nudge, did you get it, did you get it. I love straight face comedy or subtle – relatively subtle comedy.
I don’t care who anybody sleeps with. If a couple has been together all that time – and there are gay relationships that are more solid than some heterosexual ones – I think it’s fine if they want to get married. I don’t know how people can get so anti-something.
I think we’re losing our sense of humor instead of being able to relax and laugh at ourselves. I don’t care whether it’s ethnicity, age, sexual orientation, or whose ox is being gored.
I think older women still have a full life. Maybe the writers don’t address it these days, but it doesn’t change the fact.
I didn’t know what Facebook was, and now that I do know what it is, I have to say, it sounds like a huge waste of time.
Hot dogs and Red Vines and potato chips and French fries are my favorite foods.
I think a lot of people like hidden-camera shows where they think they’re spying on somebody who doesn’t know they’re looking at them. And nobody takes it seriously – you either enjoy it and get a laugh out of the reactions or not.
Retirement is not a dirty word, I am just enjoying what I am doing. If they want me to retire, then stop asking me. Ask and I will say yes unless it is something I really don’t like.
I may be a senior, but so what? I’m still hot.
I’m a big cockeyed optimist. I try to accentuate the positive as opposed to the negative.
I go out to the kitchen to feed the dog, but that’s about as much cooking as I do.
It’s your outlook on life that counts. If you take yourself lightly and don’t take yourself too seriously, pretty soon you can find the humor in our everyday lives. And sometimes it can be a lifesaver.
I’ve always had a bawdy sense of humor. My father was a traveling salesman and he would bring jokes home. He would say, “Honey, you can take this one to school, but you can’t take that one to school.”
You know what the problem that animal activists sometimes have? They only concentrate on the heartbreaking things to the point where the general public thinks, ‘Oh, here comes those animal folks again and I’m going to hear all the things I don’t want to hear.’
My blessing is I’m blessed with good health. If I weren’t feeling good or if I didn’t have the energy, then it’s not that much fun. But this way, you can get away with murder because you’re going to be 90 in January.
