QUOTES:

I can’t die until the government finds a safe place to bury my liver.

[on Bing Crosby] He was a tough guy. Make one wrong move, and he’d never speak to you again.

[on The Jungle Book (1967)] At first I didn’t want to do it. They kept calling and saying, “you know Phil Mr. Disney really wants you for this movie”. I’m not really sure what made me say it but I said to the guys there, “do you mind if I do it the way *I* would do it?”. They said to give it a shot and I said, “You know you kept messing around in here and you’ll get your roof knocked in. I mean, that monkey’ll eat you!”
