sex thinking laughing
So many young people think the big sex act is the whole movie, but that's not the case. You need to be able to talk and laugh and cry together.
success thinking think-positive
Whatever you do to gain success, you have to hang in there and hope good things happen. Always think positive.
crazy thinking years
Once in a while, when I'm alone, I think about my age. I think, How many more years do I have on this earth? But I can't really conceive of dying. Somehow, in my head, I don't think I'll die. I know that everybody dies, of course. I just think that it'll never come to me. It's crazy, but there it is.
mean thinking people
People think being in your seventies means sitting around in a chair with a blanket over your legs, drooling.
night thinking people
I'd like to think my performance is today. I never try to - it's so, as you know, watching me, I have a beginning, middle and ending. But every night the show changes and I relate to an audience and I relate to the young people.
kings thinking phones
Famous people are deceptive. Deep down, they're just regular people. Like Larry King. We've been friends for forty years. He's one of the few guys I know who's really famous. One minute he's talking to the president on his cell phone, and then the next minute he's saying to me, Do you think we ought to give the waiter another dollar?
thinking doctors rooms
I think if I took therapy, the doctor would quit. He'd just pick up the couch and walk out of the room.
chosen coach desert invite leave outside pleased sit skates vegas watch
I'm pleased to have been chosen by Coach G. and the team. I know they'll do me proud, ... If not, I'm going to invite them to leave Tucson and come to one of my Las Vegas shows, and then make them sit outside in the desert and let them watch their skates melt.
club great room
Room service is great if you want to pay $500 for a club sandwich.
sky rooms transformation
The transformation has been unbelievable. When I started here, I worked in a place where the Sky Room was on the second floor.
girl fun guy
I always enjoy being full of fun, but I have my serious moments. Some women go for the studious kind of guy, I certainly was not that. If a girl is looking for somebody different and maybe a little more exciting for themselves - someone more on the fun side, I would suggest that they look for a type like Don Rickles.
wise vegas guy
When I first went to Vegas, there were just high-rollers and gamblers and the wise guys treated you great.
years comedian
It takes many years to be a great comedian.
weakness situation jokes
I don't really tell a joke, I react to situations. The whole thing is just looking at somebody and showing all our weaknesses and exaggerating them, and that's how it becomes funny.
