I don't think anybody is wanting to put me back on the air. But I'm certainly out there trying.

Canadians send us great hockey players. You also send us wonderful performers, from the beginning, with Mary Pickford.
When the show is over we still have to pay our rent, we have to buy food. We have to do all the same things that you do.

Some people came up with story lines where Colonel Potter moves in with Klinger, and we become a 1950s' odd couple. I said, 'Come on, let's do something significant.'
I'm after the bucks because bucks give you the power, power gives you the freedom, and freedom lets you send money home to your mother.
The dresses I wore are in the Smithsonian now.
