More quotes by Andy Rooney
Soap, like people, shouldn't smell like anything.
Andy Rooney
I'd like to take some calculus, too. I have absolutely no ability in that direction and not much interest, either, but there's something going on in mathematics that I don't understand, and I'd like to find out what it is.
Andy Rooney
Go to bed. Whatever you're staying up late for isn't worth it.
Andy Rooney
It's best to give advice in only two circumstances when it's requested, and when it's a life threatening situation.
Andy Rooney
There's nothing people like better than being asked an easy question. For some reason, we're flattered when a stranger asks us where Maple Street is in our hometown and we can tell him.
Andy Rooney
I've done a lot of complaining here, but of all the things I've complained about, I can't complain about my life.
Andy Rooney
I don't know anything offhand that mystifies Americans more than the cotton they put in pill bottles. Why do they do it? Are you supposed to put the cotton back in once you've taken a pill out?
Andy Rooney
I am not retiring. Writers don't retire. Writers never stop writing.
Andy Rooney
Don't you hate it when...your suitcase is the last one off the airplane?
Andy Rooney
Figure skating is an unlikely Olympic event but its good television. It's sort of a combination of gymnastics and ballet. A little sexy too which doesn't hurt.
Andy Rooney
I've learned... That you should never say no to a gift from a child.
Andy Rooney
Don't rule out working with your hands. It does not preclude using your head.
Andy Rooney
Writers don't often say anything that readers don't already know, unless its a news story. A writer's greatest pleasure is revealing to people things they knew but did not know they knew. Or did not realize everyone else knew, too. This produces a warm sense of fellow feeling and is the best a writer can do.
Andy Rooney
I had one typewriter for 50 years, but I have bought seven computers in six years. I suppose that's why Bill Gates is rich, and Underwood is out of business.
Andy Rooney
Most college students are not as smart as most college presidents.
Andy Rooney
Flying is always an unpleasant experience. You wait an hour for every ten minutes you actually spend getting anywhere.
Andy Rooney
Obscenities... I think a lot of dumb people do it because they can't think of what they want to say and they're frustrated. A lot of smart people do it to pretend they aren't very smart - want to be just one of the boys.
Andy Rooney
No matter what any of the grammar teachers say, punctuation is an arbitrary matter. It should be used to make sentences clear.
Andy Rooney
Do I have opinions that might piss people off? Yes - that's what I'm here for.
Andy Rooney
I've learned... That when you're in love, it shows.
