More quotes by Bob Newhart
I never had an aversion because I was active in the drama club. If I had that aversion I certainly wouldn't put myself in the position of being on stage. Of course, in the drama club you're hiding behind a character.
Bob Newhart
Humor's a weapon if you want to make it one.
Bob Newhart
Women are more emotional. They do get flustered. Which is not to say that men are better than they. It's simply the way it is.

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.
Bob Newhart
All comedians are, in a way, anarchists. Our job is to make fun of the existing world.
Bob Newhart
I've been a very lucky actor.
Bob Newhart
I've been married forty-five years. I think laughter is the secret.
Bob Newhart
Because of the spin-meisters and the focus groups and the way politics is run now. It's run by polls and focus groups. So it's even more true today, I think, than it was some 40 years ago.
Bob Newhart
I couldn't play off people that I don't personally like.
Bob Newhart
One of the first things that you learn as a stand-up is, you're the boss. It's your stage, and don't screw with me because I'll make you look bad, which I had to do, because you wind up with drunks and loud people.
