Bob Newhart
But I really believe that if you have the ability, there is an obligation to make people laugh
Bob Newhart
You should have a value system. You can win if you stick with your value system.
Bob Newhart
I'm most proud of the longevity of my marriage, my kids, and my grandchildren. If you don't have that, you really don't have very much.
Bob Newhart
Funny is funny is funny.
Bob Newhart
I've been told to speed up my delivery when I perform. But if I lose the stammer, I'm just another slightly amusing accountant.
