More quotes by Andy Rooney
New ideas are one of the most overrated concepts of our time. Most of the important ideas that we live with aren't new at all.
Andy Rooney
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

Every one starts out being an atheist.
Andy Rooney
The only thing that really bugs me about television's coverage is those damn women they have down on the sidelines who don't know what the hell they're talking about. I mean, I'm not a sexist person, but a woman has no business being down there trying to make some comment about a football game.
Andy Rooney
Anyone should be very suspicious of a sentence he's written that can't be read aloud easily.
Andy Rooney
I like ice hockey, but it's a frustrating game to watch. It's hard to keep your eyes on both the puck and the players and too much time passes between scoring in hockey. There are usually more fights than there are points.
Andy Rooney
Finding the tool is often half the battle.
Andy Rooney
If you get murdered because you go on a date with someone you met on the Internet, you probably deserved it.
Andy Rooney
Familiar things are a comfort to us all.
