W. C. Fields famous quotes and sayings.
Fields created one of the great American comic personas of the first half of the 20th century: a misanthropic and hard-drinking egotist who remained a sympathetic character despite his snarling contempt for dogs, children, and women. The music is Stomp and Swing and you can find it on Smartsound.com
Here are some of his famous and not so famous quotes and wisdom.

My favourite WC story - Bill takes a young woman into a bar for a drink: Bill - "well my dear, what will you have to drink?" Her - "Guess I'll have champagne" Bill - "...guess again"

My favorite quotes of his seem to be missing from this list: 1) "A man's got to believe in something; I believe I'll have another drink!" ... and then there's the line attributed to him on his deathbed; someone came into the room and was surprised to see him thumbing through a bible... caught in the act, WC enacted his famous fluster and said, "Just looking for loopholes!"

Love W.C. - Always loved the story that in his last days, he worried about the rain being late to his area in CA and his wife sprayed the roof to soothe him to sleep - sweet

WC Fields had a lot of sarcastic jokes about Philadelphia. WC Fields was born in Philadelphia, and not even a Statute or Plaque in his name to honor the man, but there is a Statute of Rocky Balboa; a fictional character. Pathetic; now you can understand where all the jokes come from.

W.C. Fields is a most interesting study. One might say he 'stepped way outside the box'. But I like to think that he said it "straight-on". And one can take it or leave it, as it be.

@Zanomani 7 лет назад

He also was one of the best jugglers in the world in his time!

@helomike7000 7 лет назад

He had his moments. The best story I heard was when he was on his deathbed reading the Bible (he was a longtime devout atheist). His best friend came into to his room and said "Bill your an atheist, what are you doing reading the Bible?". Without hesitation he looked up and said "Looking for loopholes"...

Laughed so hard reading those W.C. quotes I was cryin'. Thanks Wiley Studios.

@bryanmiller6046 5 лет назад

I used a lot of them at work and they just look at me and walk away.

Brilliant! Wow....discovered WC Fields, via listening to Jack White's interview by Conan O'Brien (both huge fans of his). I didn't recognize this guy's talent!

Very good, W.C.. Excellent. Just one thing, water is the alcoholic's friend. Drink plenty, your liver will thank you.

@michaelmorgan8426 6 лет назад

horse sense is the thing horses have to keep them from betting on people, i need some of that..

@alancox1444 5 лет назад

This type of music hall humor is priceless and timeless. Of course the alcohol gags have to be seen in the context of Americas absurd and deadly prohibition laws. Most media entertainers these days do live stand up comedy as a right of passage and I expect WC Fields honed his skills in countless live stage appearances before making it onto the big screen. A lot of of these people (eg Marx brothers and Benny Hill etc) had family backgrounds as 3rd generation circus clowns etc. Thoroughbreds?

@richardeast3328 7 лет назад

Ah yes, what a funny man he was.

@verdew8181 12 лет назад

1. He actually didn't say the one about water and fish. 2. Sadly, he actually didn't hate kids and animals but only kept it a secret.

@eisenjeisen6262 7 лет назад

He was the best, and that long bar and you start laughing when he got to the end and the lady whistle to him then you catch on and can't stop laughing and that guy having those drinks.

@smikro1 14 лет назад

Very nicely done. The music is a perfect fit. Where is it from?

@jeb31415 10 лет назад

A lot of these require context and his elocution to be funny.

@cdream5414 7 лет назад

I thought he hated Philadelphia. What was his beef with children, water, and animals. Though i loved everything he wrote.

@nobleeagle7661 7 лет назад

Cyrus Dee His producer put him up to the hate but in real life was married with children owning an occasional dog.

@samdrake51 7 лет назад

Cyrus Dee I don't drink water because of what fish do in it, everything. (The clean, rated G version.)

@Playsinvain 7 лет назад

well that`s the schtick. How much fun to have a guy who seems to hate kids and he being tormented by them in a fun way. Of course the kids love adults like that..

@miltonroberts7948 6 лет назад

I haven pics of him with his baby son. Read his grandson's book.

"any man that hates children and dogs can't be all bad" is not a legit quote. It was said about him at a celebrity roast.

Great character im sure the cartoon rooster Foghorn Leghorn is based on him

@slowcloudorca5071 6 лет назад

@bob thebuilder Senator Beauregard Claghorn (fictional character) look him up , you may be surprised .

@bustamantenessuno4779 6 лет назад

Wrong. The.cartoon character Foghorn Leghorn was based solely on "Senator" Claghorn, a loud - mouthed, non-stop talking comic on Fred Allen's radio program "Allen's Alley."

@miltonroberts7948 6 лет назад

His grandson's book has pics of him with his parents and family.His films show the "character" he played. There is a story that he had a small pond on his place. C.B.DeMille's grandson fell in and drowned. Fields quietly had the pond filled in.

I can't think of the disease it's actually called...but I'm sure you all know why his nose is like that. From alcoholism. That's why it's big and red

Fish Fuck in water is the true quote.

smokin dope mornin to night is less harmful on ya than drinkin mornin to night. so all u little alcies hope i get some laughs with that one. hahaha thank u gare

@belfastsoul8863 6 лет назад

I think his exact words were, " I don't drink water cause fish fuck in it"!!!

@LWVH81 6 лет назад

It's not Sing, SIng, Sing as we may know it. Rather it's a spiffy version ala Benny Goodman and Gene Krupa. If in fact it's not actually the Benny Goodman Orchestra along with Gene Krupa themselves. But/And way cool nevertheless! :)
