Dick Van Dyke
When I auditioned for 'Bye Bye Birdie' on Broadway, Gower Champion said, 'You've got the job!' I said, 'Mr. Champion, I can't dance.' He said, 'We'll teach you what you need to know.'
Dick Van Dyke
I'm the anti-Quentin Tarantino.
Dick Van Dyke
I wouldn't mind taking a chance at Real Time, I've always thought if I could pick my interviewer, it'd be Charlie Rose, who I think is the best.
Dick Van Dyke
Moses probably danced a little, right? You don't part the Red Sea without having some moves.

I did a 'Golden Girls' once, which shot in front of an audience, and that went well. I had a good time. But I need an audience, for comedy at least.

10 years ago, I would've host Saturday Night Live. But to me, the show has declined. For some reason, humor isn't what it was. It just, to me, it's not as funny as it was, not as sharply satirical.
Dick Van Dyke
Hope is life's essential nutrient, and love is what gives life meaning
Dick Van Dyke
I'm not quite as much of a curmudgeon being old. I'm not cantankerous. But otherwise, I'm about the same.
Dick Van Dyke
Jon Stewart kills me. I love him. And Bill Maher. He does an hour on HBO. But entirely political. It is awfully rough, but he does make me laugh.
Dick Van Dyke
Do you know that I was the anchor on the 'CBS Morning Show?' And my newsman was Walter Cronkite.
Dick Van Dyke
So as my kids will tell you, they had a pretty normal life.
Dick Van Dyke
I think that's the answer to a good marriage. Everyone has their own room.
Dick Van Dyke
People think I'm talking like I'm in perfect health, but I have all the infirmities for my age. I have arthritis and all those things. But if you keep moving, that won't bother you.
Dick Van Dyke
Only funny line I've had was my first day on the set of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. They were making me up, and I saw the director call the makeup man over, and he says What are we going to do about the hooter? And the makeup guy said, I'm not a plastic surgeon. So I started that show with a big nose, and quite conscious of it.
