“Rock Hudson, I suppose.”

— Yogi Berra

Responding, in kind, to Joe Garagiola's facetious request for Berra's opinion as to who would star in his film biography, as quoted in "Yogi Battles Third and Finds It Hot" http://www.newspapers.com/newspage/12048270/ by Arthur Daley, in The Salt Lake Tribune (Monday, March 14, 1960), p. 47.

“And Romeo had Juliette
And Juliette had her Romeo
I'll take Manhattan in a garbage bag
With Latin written on it that says
"it's hard to give a shit these days"
Manhattan's sinking like a rock
Into the filthy Hudson what a shock
They wrote a book about it
They said it was like ancient Rome”
