If I couldn't be Dick Van Dyke, I wanted to be Art Carney.

So, okay, I'm not a genius. Vincent Van Gogh and Albert Einstein were geniuses.

I worked at a nursing home though high school... There's a lost appreciation for a generation that has so much to tell us when we're so full of self-help books and doctors on TV.

Not only do people stop me on the street to say, 'We're walking, we're walking', but I have actually been in restaurants where the hostess was saying it to customers.

Oprah was not somebody who was telling us what to do, she wasn't really teaching us like so many people we see today. With Oprah, she was learning and we were learning with her. And I think that's really was the seed that was planted for all of us to just hang in there with her.

I have a great affinity for senior citizens.
