fun talking years
I've been talking about retiring for years. It's my standard answer to the question, 'What are your future plans?' The truth is, I'll always want to do things that are worthwhile or fun.
retirement fun mean
I found out retirement means playing golf, or I don't know what the hell it means. But to me, retirement means doing what you have fun doing.
fun golf play
I don't play golf. I have more fun singing and dancing.
fun thinking two
I think, the 'Van Dyke Show' and 'Mary Poppins' are two of the best periods of my life. I had so much fun, I didn't want it to end.
retirement fun careers
I'm really in retirement. My career is over. I'm just playing now and having a great time. I like to keep busy, and I'm doing what's fun for me.
fun creative periods
'The Show' was the most fun I ever had and the most creative period of my life.
fun writing dykes
I've had a lot of writers, in particular, who said they got into writing because of the 'Van Dyke Show.' They said it looked like fun.
people funny-people mets
There's a lot of very funny people I'd love to work with that I've never met, of course. I love Steve Martin and Jim Carrey.

Women will never be as successful as men because they have no wives to advise them.

There are tribes all over the world who sing and dance every day as part of their lives. And we oughta do that.

You need someone to love, and something to do that you enjoy, and something to hope for, and that's enough for me.

Everything's getting homogenized. It seems to me like music and behavior and everything else is getting homogenized.
guy important sideways
The most important thing for old guys is never start going down the stairs sideways.
thinking understanding mind
I know friends of mine who have never changed their mind about anything in their lives, despite evidence from all directions. And I think if you can keep an open mind and some understanding, that helps you stay young.
