Bob Newhart
  • Funny is funny is funny.

  • I really don't know what makes a comedian. I think it's a family background and environment. Yet if you put the same ingredients in another person, he may never utter a funny line.

  • I was never a Certified Public Accountant. I just had a degree in accounting. It would require passing a test, which I would not have been able to do.

  • I don't know how many sacred cows there are today. I think there's a little confusion between humor and gross passing for humor. That's kind of regrettable.

  • I'm most proud of the longevity of my marriage, my kids, and my grandchildren. If you don't have that, you really don't have very much.
