I'm a big cockeyed optimist. I try to accentuate the positive as opposed to the negative.
It's a little known fact that one in three family pets gets lost during its lifetime, and approximately 9 million pets enter shelters each year. That's why it's a wonderful thing to get your pet microchipped and registered with your contact information because then they can be located and the owners can track where their pets are.
Being blessed with good health gives you the strength and loving what you do and - is a privilege that keeps you going. So I'm just happy as a lark.
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 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.
I'm blessed with good health for which I'm deeply grateful, so for that reason, I feel so good. Everybody else is far more excited about the 90 than I am.
I still like to see that a man opens the door. I like those touches of chivalry that are fast disappearing. If I sound old-fashioned, it's because I'm as old as I am! But it's just polite.
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."
I go out to the kitchen to feed the dog, but that's about as much cooking as I do.
I think everybody needs a passion. Whether it's one passion or a hundred, that's what keep life interesting.
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.
The film industry gives you the opportunity to meet interesting people.
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.
You gotta use everything you possibly can!
