Robert Klein Quotes

I was a class clown Picture Quote #1

But I think the other is a little more like bullfighting, a little more daring and although I appreciate good acting and I liked being versatile my whole career, it kept me working Picture Quote #1

In the fifties I had dreams about touching a naked woman and she would turn to bronze or the dream about hot dogs chasing donuts through the Lincoln Tunnel Picture Quote #1

I have a work-out regime; I am not a maniac. It sounds cliche, but stand-up comedy, doing a one-man show, helps keep me young, and yes, it is exhausting, but I don’t collapse Picture Quote #1

Comedy is still alive, and there are still funny people. Jews are still overrepresented in comedy and psychiatry and underrepresented in the priesthood. That immigrant Jewish humor is still with us Picture Quote #1

I love live theater. I get my rocks off by doing stand-up, and I am the only actor. But to show up eight times a week and not have that time for myself; to do someone else’s lines? When I work for Wendy Wasserstein or Terrence McNally, Neil Simon or even Shakespeare, I do not have the right to change the lines Picture Quote #1

I was a class clown. My father was a class clown. My son has been a class clown, and it sort of ran in the family Picture Quote #1

And the only studies were - Rodney Dangerfield was my mentor and he was my Yale drama school for comedy Picture Quote #1

One of my greatest inspirations for stand-up was Jonathan Winters. He was a genius. One thing about him, and also Lenny Bruce, is that they were in the tradition of the one-man show. That’s why Richard Pryor was so great, and George Carlin, too. They prowled the stage, they used voices, they were really talents Picture Quote #1

What makes a good nanny? A good nanny is someone who really wants to do the job. Someone who loves children, who really values what she does and, of course, is valued by her employer Picture Quote #1

My son has been a class clown and it sort of ran in the family Picture Quote #1

In the book of things people more often do wrong than right, investing must certainly top the list, followed closely by wallpapering and eating artichokes Picture Quote #1

So it took me five years because in the interim I have been doing a lot of personal appearances and movies and some television series that went into the plumbing and I stopped writing for a while Picture Quote #1
