Elsie Downey (1962 – 18 February 1982) (divorced) (2 children)

QUOTES:

[describing his childhood]: It was like a bad version of “The Catcher In The Rye”. My mother was groovy-looking and was married four times. I got booted out of three prep schools – St.Paul’s, Peddie and Lawrenceville – and never got past the ninth-and-a-half grade. I was on athletics scholarships and I never went to classes.

[on his army service]: One of the times I fucked up was at an early warning radar post on Prince of Wales (Island), near the International Dateline. The lieutenant was asleep. So this other guy, from the Bronx, and I disconnected the phone back to Fairbanks. And we drew on the plotting board all these arrows representing bombers coming from Siberia. I woke up the lieutenant and he panicked. He went out of his skull. We let him stew awhile, and then we told him it was a joke. He was so happy, he laughed and cried and hugged us. Then he testified at our court-martial.

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!”
