Dick Van Dyke
I found doing that kind of comedy without an audience is just... for me, it's almost impossible. You need the audience to do their half of the work.
Dick Van Dyke
No, no, it was the relationships. That was that group. People believed that Rob and Laura were really married in real life. You know, a lot of people believed that.
Dick Van Dyke
Stan said he used to keep Hardy late, make him miss his golf game, and really get him mad.
Dick Van Dyke
My work is just a hobby. No, I wouldn't want to do it professionally. It's too hard. Deadlines are no fun. But I can sit and tweak all night and not worry about time.
Dick Van Dyke
So as my kids will tell you, they had a pretty normal life.
Dick Van Dyke
When I get some budding young comic who'll come up to me and say, 'What was it like to do it in those days?' I try to be as gracious to him as Stan Laurel was to me.
Dick Van Dyke
