More quotes by Bob Newhart
Continuing to do stand-up is always a challenge because the audiences and the environments in which you work very often differ.
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.
Bob Newhart
All comedians are, in a way, anarchists. Our job is to make fun of the existing world.
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 don't want to find the secret. I'm afraid all the joy will go out of it if I find the secret.
Bob Newhart
Laughter gives us distance. It allows us to step back from an event, deal with it and then move on.
Bob Newhart
All I can say about life is, 'Oh God, enjoy it!'
Bob Newhart
You shouldn't get too close to the truth, because then maybe you stop being funny.

It was a decision to work clean. I just prefer to work that way. I have no problem with comedians who don't work that way. There was a temptation in the early '70s to reconsider. I decided against it.
Bob Newhart
I'm very open to the up-and-comers.
Bob Newhart
Don't ever have two dogs. That way you won't know which one to blame.
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
There's gratification in making somebody laugh. It's a wonderful sound. I find myself, to this day, doing it, wanting to make people laugh.
Bob Newhart
The reason I'm a psychologist is based in part on my telephone routines. Much of my humor comes out of reaction to what other people are saying. A psychologist is a man who listens, who is sympathetic.
Bob Newhart
I kind of do it in my head, then I'll try pieces of it on stage and if it looks promising, I'll put it together.
Bob Newhart
The only way to survive is to have a sense of humour.
Bob Newhart
Well, my career choice made a difference because I never would have met my wife, Jenny. I met her through comedian Buddy Hackett. He set us up on a blind date and then we got married.
Bob Newhart
I didn't need the elf outfit to play an elf I could just play an elf.
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.
