“Did you ever get the feeling that you wanted to go,
But still had the feeling that you wanted to stay,
You knew it was right, wasn't wrong.
Still you knew you wouldn't be very long.
Go or stay, stay or go,
Start to go again and change your mind again.
It's hard to have the feeling that you wanted to go,
But still have the feeling that you wanted to stay.
Do, re, mi, fa, so, la, si, do.
I'll go.
I'll stay.”
Jimmy Durante

“Be nice to people on your way up becuase you meet them on your way down”
Jimmy Durante

“My wife has a slight impediment in her speech. Every now and then she stops to breathe.”
