I've always had great faith in people.
I miss the personalization that Vegas was - there were showroom captains and all the dealers knew the gamblers by their first names.
When you take of a man's time, you've taken a part of his life.
But one man never laughed. He was a giant among men. He was Bobby Darin and he was my friend.
You can take of a man's money, but when it's all said and done, you've only taken his money.
I love taking chances.
Las Vegas and I both grew up together, and all of a sudden I was doing things that no performer had ever done before.
I dont really believe in regrets.
One of the reasons I was so proud to be born on April 3, is because I am such a big fan of yours.
Sure, I've been a victim, but in retrospect, most of it has been of my own making. I allowed it to happen.
There's no room in my life for feeling sorry for myself.
