“I'm 82 years old, wherever I go everybody knows me, but here's why… I'm a merchandiser, I'm not just a writer, I stay in every avenue you can think of.”

“No matter how I try
I just can't say goodbye.
No matter what you say
looks like I'm here to stay.
No matter where I go
I don't know if you know
but everywhere we've been
I'm kept in quarantine.”

“I'm very embarrassing to look at. You know why? Here's why I'm embarrassing: 'cause there's a little bit of me in everybody… I'm like the boy that never grew up. I'm very, very passionate about what I do. I mean, I love what I do…. and people are like "God, give this guy a valium or something, you know? Can't he have a bad day?"”

“Girl, you can tell everybody
Yeah, you can tell everybody
Go ahead and tell everybody
Reveal the man, I'm the man, I'm the man
Yes, I am, yes, I am, yes, I am
Reveal the man, I'm the man, I'm the man”

“I'm the boss. I'm going to continue to run things. They've been putting the roscoe on me for a good many years and I'm still healthy and happy. Don't let anybody kid you into thinking I can be run out of town. I haven't run yet and I'm not going to.”

“I'm still here mon frere I know the cross I bear,
They like, that's why they call you Hov? I'm like yea
I'm like air, little shots go through me, won't tear
One tissue no tears, no tissue not an issue”

“I better quit my talking now; I told you all I know,
But please remember, pardner, wherever you may go,
I'm older than your old folks, and I'm younger than the young,
And I'm about the biggest thing that man has ever done.”

“I'm not stupid. I know everybody thinks I am. I just don't like answering their questions.”

“I'm growing old and I wanna go home.
I'm growing old and I don't wanna know.”

“Somewhere there's an angel saying stay
I need someone to tell me, I'm too hard to break
I'm not ready to go just yet.”
