Quote from a Movie: “My dear partner, when what’s left of you gets around to what’s left to be gotten, what’s left to be gotten won’t be worth getting whatever it is you’ve got left.” (White Christmas)


Quote from an Interview: “What makes a comedian funny? How the hell do I know? I don’t know what makes me funny and you not. It’s like taking a hundred different people, telling them the same story and asking them to repeat it. Some will tell it funnier, some less so and others will repeat it as conversation.” (October 29, 1960)
