More quotes by Bob Hope
I was lucky, you know, I always had a beautiful girl and the money was good. Although I would have done the whole thing over for, oh, perhaps half.
Bob Hope
Bing Crosby and I weren't the types to go around kissing each other. We always had a light jab for each other. One of our stock lines used to be There's nothing I wouldn't do for Bing, and there's nothing he wouldn't do for me. And that's the way we go through life - doing nothing for each other!

Bob Hope
I only speak a little pigeon French. Just enough to get by with the little French pigeons.
Bob Hope
Some people put us down. But I still haven't heard of any Americans trying to swim across the border into Mexico!
Bob Hope
One of the greatest gifts to mankind is laughter, and one of the greatest gifts to laughter is Lucille Ball. God has her now but thanks to television, we'll have her forever.
Bob Hope
The service at the Imperial (Tokyo) is the finest I've encountered anywhere. There was a button next to my bed marked ROOM SERVICE - and a maid to press it for me.
Bob Hope
If he slices the budget like he slices a golf ball, the nation has nothing to worry about.
Bob Hope
The trees in Siberia are miles apart, that is why the dogs are so fast.
Bob Hope
I felt I wasn't getting anywhere in England.
Bob Hope
Tokyo cab drivers are all ex-kamikaze pilots.
Bob Hope
You know you've reached middle age when your weightlifting consists merely of standing up.
Bob Hope
The firm is really ahead of the times. It has a stock market ticker that prints its report on thin aspirins.
Bob Hope
My father told me all about the birds and the bees, the liar - I went steady with a woodpecker till I was twenty one.
Bob Hope
Free speech isn't dead in Germany and Italy, merely the speakers.
