“It is better to give than receive- especially advice.”
“Had double chins all the way down to his stomach.”
“So you see, the quality of humor is not a personal or a national monopoly. It's as free as salvation, and, I am afraid, far more widely distributed. But it has its value, I think. The hard and sordid things of life are too hard and too sordid and too cruel for us to know and touch them year after year without some mitigating influence, some kindly veil to draw over them, from time to time, to blur the craggy outlines, and make the thorns less sharp and the cruelties less malignant.”

“As you get older you're told to be sensible, but it's important for writing if you're a comic that you're able to still access that childlike thing.”
“Whenever a man's friends begin to compliment him about looking young, he may be sure that they think he is growing old.”
