Gilda Radner

“I had been a fan of Gene Wilder's for many years, but the first time I saw him in person, my heart fluttered - I was hooked. It felt like my life went from black and white to Technicolor.”

“Suddenly I began to wonder how to please so many people. do I take the magnesium citrate? What about the coffee enema? Do I do both? Do I do the abdominal message or the colonic? Do I tell the doctors about each other? East meets West in Gilda's body: Western medicine down my throat, Eastern medicine up my butt.”

“I'm not really an impersonator.”

“Having cancer gave me membership in an elite club I'd rather not belong to.”

“I think dogs are the most amazing creatures; they give unconditional love. For me, they are the role model for being alive.”

“I'd much rather be a woman than a man. Women can cry, they can wear cute clothes, and they're the first to be rescued off sinking ships.”

“I can always be distracted by love, but eventually I get horny for my creativity.”

“While we have the gift of life, it seems to me the only tragedy is to allow part of us to die - whether it is our spirit, our creativity or our glorious uniqueness.”

“Some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle and end.”

“Fame changes a lot of things, but it can't change a lightbulb.”

“I grew up in front of a television. I guess I'll grow old inside of one.”
