I did the Ed Sullivan show four times. I did the Steve Allen show. I did the Jackie Gleason show.

I don't think I'm bad for people. If I did think I was bad for people, I would go back to driving a truck, and I really mean this.

I knew by heart all the dialogue of James Dean's films; I could watch Rebel Without a Cause a hundred times over.

How could you get angry with Jackie Gleason?

It's more dangerous to be a friend or relative of Jackie Chan in the star's movies than it is to play the third yeoman on a 'Star Trek' episode.

Truth is like the sun. You can shut it out for a time, but it ain't going away.
