Kirk Douglas
You'll never see Spartacus in a (expletive) chair!
Kirk Douglas

Kirk Douglas
On a crowded bus in Israel, a mother was speaking to her son in Yiddish. An Israeli woman reprimanded her. You should be speaking Hebrew. Why are you talking to him in Yiddish? The mother answered, I don't want he should forget he's a Jew.
Kirk Douglas
When you get old the worst thing is you lose so many friends. Burt Lancaster, Frank Sinatra, John Wayne. People who I loved to work with.
Kirk Douglas
When you reach 95, after you get over your surprise, you start looking back.
Kirk Douglas
Why can't a woman be more like a dog, huh? So sweet, loving, attentive.
Kirk Douglas
I'm a loner clear down deep to my guts.
