Jackie Mason sayings…
“I have enough money to last me the rest of my life unless I buy something.”
“It's no longer a question of staying healthy. It's a question of finding a sickness you like.”
“If an Englishman gets run down by a truck he apologizes to the truck.”
“I don't believe that anybody has come to a conclusion on why something is funny. It's funny because it's ridiculous and it's ridiculous for different reasons at different times.”
“Did you ever hear of a kid playing accountant - even if they wanted to be one?”
“Eighty percent of married men cheat in America. The rest cheat in Europe.”
“My comedy doesn't come from any calculations and studies.”
“I have nothing but love in my heart and everything I say is just an instrument for laughs.”
“I can't predict the future and I don't have respect for people who try to.”
“My material is as new as anything on the dinner table. What difference does it make if I'm 70 or if I'm 20? The audience knows they aren't getting any old stories from me.”
“It is more profitable for your congressman to support the tobacco industry than your life.”
“I can't pretend that I'm a great student of the art of comedy because anybody that becomes philosophical about humor doesn't know what he's talking about.”
“I've been watching politics for 35 or 40 years and you just never know. You can have one person win the Iowa caucus and then the whole picture changes ten minutes later. The same thing can happen again after New Hampshire. I have no idea what's going to happen with our country in the future.”
“Predictions are preposterous.”
“A schmuck like Bernie Sanders pops out who doesn't even know what's going on and doesn't care. Because to him Israel getting wiped out is no problem. Climate change is the only problem. To him, the most important thing in the world is climate change. If Israel gave up their country but they fought for climate change, he would love Israel. In ten minutes, they would be his favourite country.”
