We all ought to understand we're on our own. Believing in Santa Claus doesn't do kids any harm for a few years but it isn't smart for them to continue waiting all their lives for him to come down the chimney with something wonderful. Santa Claus and God are cousins.

Andy Rooney
Conservatives are more religious than liberals--although there is no evidence that they're nicer people because of it.
Andy Rooney
We need people who can actually do things. We have too many bosses and too few workers. More college graduates ought to become plumbers or electricians, then go home at night and read Shakespeare.
Andy Rooney
You really can't blame the military for wanting to go to war [in Iraq]. They've got all these new toys and they want to know whether they work or not.
Andy Rooney
If dogs could talk it would take a lot of the fun out of owning one.
Andy Rooney
The best Christmas trees come very close to exceeding nature. If some of our great decorated trees had been grown in a remote forest area with lights that came on every evening as it grew dark, the whole world would come to look at them and marvel at the mystery of their great beauty.
Andy Rooney
Anyone should be very suspicious of a sentence he's written that can't be read aloud easily.
Andy Rooney
I've learned... That you should never say no to a gift from a child.
Andy Rooney
