To have a statue of you up 100 years from now at the Superdome, I think that's amazing.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I'm delighted. I don't know of anybody who had a statue built of them while they were living. It's a great feeling.
I've always had a strong feeling for the Statue of Liberty, because it became the statue of my personal liberty.
I have a statue of Superman. It's actually a big one... It's a collectible statue of Superman, which the DC guys very kindly gave to me. So that's a little prized possession of mine.
Some say that now that 50 years have passed, we would like another 50 more years to celebrate once again; that means it will be 100 years. After one hundred years, I will be 118 years old.
If it were my decision, I'd knock the Superdome down. If I couldn't knock it down, I'd just open the roof and gut the whole inside - totally modernize it. If you just dust it off and paint a little bit but don't reimage it, the legacy will be horrible.
Up there with my awards, I have a great big statue of Groucho Marx, just to put everything in perspective.
As I looked up at the Statue of Liberty, I thought at that time, 'What a wonderful country.'
I think that's become passe, but if you can surround yourself with a kind of monument to yourself and your family - a statement - and you can afford it, then that's a noble project.
I should be proud to have my memory graced, but only if the monument be placed... here, where I endured three hundred hours in line before the implacable iron bars.
And I think that after nearly 85 years upon this planet that I have a right after working so hard at showing the desolation and the poverty, to show something beautiful for somebody as well.
