“I'm always making a comeback but nobody ever tells me where I've been.” — Billie Holiday

They think they can make fuel from horse manure - now, I don't know if your car will be able to get 30 miles to the gallon, but it's sure gonna put a stop to siphoning.

You've got to have something to eat and a little love in your life before you can hold still for any damn body's sermon on how to behave.

Singing songs like 'The Man I Love' or 'Porgy' is no more work than sitting down and eating Chinese roast duck, and I love roast duck.

One day a whole damn song fell into place in my head.
