It’s [old age] not a surprise, we knew it was coming – make the most of it. So you may not be as fast on your feet, and the image in your mirror may be a little disappointing, but if you are still functioning and not in pain, gratitude should be the name of the game.
Snow always inspires such awe in me. Just consider one tiny snowflake alone, so delicate, so fragile, so ethereal. And yet, let a billion of them come together through the majestic force of nature, they can screw up a whole city.
I love straight-face comedy or relatively subtle comedy. And then I turn around and I find myself doing very broad comedy but it's all fun and you have to keep your sense of humor and not take yourself seriously.
Keep the other person's well being in mind when you feel an attack of soul-purging truth coming on.
I had to make a major decision with myself because I just don't think you can do both: try to have a baby career and raise it and have a baby baby and raise it. And to try to do justice to either one. It was a very conscious decision on my part not to have children - which I have never regretted.
One thing they don't tell you about growing old - you don't feel old, you just feel like yourself. And it's true. I don't feel eighty-nine years old. I simply am eighty-nine years old.
Wilderness is harder and harder to find these days on this beautiful planet, and we're abusing our planet to the point of almost no return.
Retirement is not in my vocabulary. They aren't going to get rid of me that way.
I have my golden retriever now, Pontiac. He's a career-change guide dog from Guide Dogs for the Blind.
I love Cadillacs and name them after birds.
I kid around a lot, but pranks are not my best strength!
I like bawdy humor. I love bawdy humor, but not dirty humor.
I'm in the acting business. That's the ego business.
It's fun once in a while to do a serious part but I really enjoy doing comedy because I love to laugh.
