“Canada has given us John Candy and Martin Short and Bill Shatner and Lord knows …” — Jamie Farr

I would like to do a nice comedy/drama feature with a good part, but nobody's asked me to do a film. Maybe it's because they don't know what to do with a guy in a dress.

I was the first man to put on a dress and play it straight. That was something very fresh. Still is.

I can't imagine that I will ever be on anything like 'M*A*S*H' again.

I was thrilled as a kid to point out my sister as she danced and sang on the stage, and she was pretty good artistically. She was a great inspiration to me. She was the one who sort of led me into show business.
