More quotes by Dick Van Dyke
I think the biggest mistake - I was always a big fan of Cary Grant, and he asked me to do a movie with him, playing the second lead, and I didn't do it. And to this day, I can't remember why. But I could've said I worked with Cary Grant, but I turned him down. That was probably the biggest mistake I ever made.
Dick Van Dyke
I think both of those: the subject matter, pop culture... the talent, I don't think... there's no Jim Belushi in Saturday Night Live, for me. And probably, you know, possibly the material. They've done everything over the years.
Dick Van Dyke
There's a lot of very funny people I'd love to work with that I've never met, of course. I love Steve Martin and Jim Carrey.
Dick Van Dyke
I have also heard and read various accounts of why they [Sheldon Leonard and Carl Reiner] liked me. My favorites? I wasn't too good-looking, I walked a little funny, and I was basically kind of average and ordinary. I guess my lack of perfection turned out to be a winning hand. Let that be a lesson for future generations.

I think the saddest moment in my life just happened two months ago. My old nightclub partner passed away, Phil Erickson down in Atlanta. He - I owe him everything. He put me in the business and taught me about everything I know.

In my seventies, I exercised to stay ambulatory. In my eighties, I exercise to avoid assisted living.
Dick Van Dyke
I hear music and my feet just start moving.
Dick Van Dyke
I've made peace with insecurity... because there is no security of any kind.
Dick Van Dyke
I've got plenty of arthritis. But if you keep moving, it won't bother you that much. That's why old guys stiffen up. They forget they have to get out of their chairs and do something. You let the moss grow over, it's your own fault.
Dick Van Dyke
We spent a lot of time together and had a great time with Mary Tyler Moore. And just working with her was like improv.
Dick Van Dyke
[My mother] once cooked a ham and later found it in my father's shirt drawer. I am not kidding.
Dick Van Dyke
I would love to see Carl Reiner working in the arena today. He did some marvelous things on our show in the early '60s when it was a little edgy. We did shows about blacks, a couple, three of those. Some thought-provoking stuff.
Dick Van Dyke
We should never judge a day by its weather.
Dick Van Dyke
I think it's being thrown at the wolves, we call it in our business.
Dick Van Dyke
I could probably play an alcoholic. I've had some experience with that.
Dick Van Dyke
So as my kids will tell you, they had a pretty normal life.
Dick Van Dyke
I have four children and I have seven grandkids.
Dick Van Dyke
Anyone who doesn't sing and dance at every opportunity is missing out on the joy of life.
Dick Van Dyke
My favorite unknown movie is 'The Comic.'
Dick Van Dyke
But I wish they would make a musical of some kind. I miss musicals so much. You don't see them anymore.
