Quote

Eisenhower had about the most expressive face I ever painted, I guess. Just like an actor's. Very mobile. When he talked, he used all the facial muscles. And he had a great, wide mouth that I liked. When he smiled, it was just like the sun came out.

I am not a sad clown. I am not a sad clown.

You never have a comedian who hasn't got a very deep strain of sadness within him or her. Every great clown has been very near to tragedy.

Well, Dwight was born to be No. 2 and I don't think he would know what to do as a leader. But he loves following. He would have made a great fascist.

A clown's makeup and character, that's all he has to sell. He loves and believes in that character.

I know what I look like - a weird, sad clown puppet. I'm fine with that.

I'm not sure how a world leader reacts to the work of a clown.

I'm a tearless clown. If I were to get a tattoo, it would be the two masks, and they would be both smiling.

All the world loves a clown.

I'm an actor, not a clown.
