Last night, it was so cold, the flashers in New York were only describing themselves.

Whatever you do, you're going ...

Whatever you do, you're going to be criticized.

Johnny Carson 167 quotes

I feel the one sensible thing ...

I feel the one sensible thing you can do is try to live in a way that pleases you. If you don't hurt anybody else, what you do is your own business.

I owe one thing to my public - the best performance I can give.

Johnny Carson 167 quotes

As for being sociable, I hate the phoniness in the showbiz world. I know this will be taken wrong, but I don't like clubs and organizations. I was never a joiner.

Johnny Carson 167 quotes

I don't run with anybody's her...

I don't run with anybody's herd. I don't like crowds. I don't like going to fancy places. I don't like the whole nightclub scene. Cocktail parties drive me mad. So I do my job and I stay away from the rest of it.

I can't go anywhere without be...

I can't go anywhere without being bugged by somebody. I'd love to just hike out down the street, or drop in a restaurant, or wander in the park, or take my kids somewhere without collecting a trail of people. But I can't.

Everybody I meet in public see...

Everybody I meet in public seems to want to audition for me. If I ask a guy what time it is, he'll sing it to me.

Johnny Carson 167 quotes

I don't think it's you that ch...

I don't think it's you that changes with success - it's the people around you who change. Because of your new status, they change in relation to you.

Johnny Carson 167 quotes

I loved the towns I grew up in...

I loved the towns I grew up in as a boy, and after I became a celebrity, I went back several times. I would have had the time of my life seeing the old places and the old faces again, but the attitude of those same people was, 'I guess you're so big we bore you now.'

Johnny Carson 167 quotes

Find me any performer anywhere...

Find me any performer anywhere who isn't egocentric. You'd better believe you're good, or you've got no business being out there.

Johnny Carson 167 quotes

People are brought up to think...

People are brought up to think, 'It's nice to be modest. It's nice to hide your light under a bushel.' Well, bullshit! I've never bought that. In my business, the only thing you've really got is your talent; it's the only thing you have to sell.

Johnny Carson 167 quotes

From the time I was a little k...

From the time I was a little kid, I was always shy. Performing was when I was outgoing. So I guess I am a loner. I get claustrophobia if a lot of people are around.

Johnny Carson 167 quotes

There's a big difference betwe...

There's a big difference between being a loner and being lonely. I'm far from lonely. My day is full of things I enjoy, starting with my show. Any time my work is going well and I have a relationship with a woman that's pretty solid, that does it for me.

Johnny Carson 167 quotes

I have no use for eight houses...

I have no use for eight houses, 88 cars and 500 suits. I can't eat but one steak at a time. I don't want but one woman. It's silly to have as one's sole object in life just making money, accumulating wealth.

Johnny Carson 167 quotes

I work because I enjoy what I'...

I work because I enjoy what I'm doing, and the fact that I make money at it - big money - is a fine-and-dandy side fact.

Johnny Carson 167 quotes

Money gives me just one big thing that's really important, and that's the freedom of not having to worry about money.

Johnny Carson 167 quotes

Having money gives me the freedom to worry about the things that really matter.

Johnny Carson 167 quotes

I'm not one of those who spring up yelling, 'Yippee! Another day!' I'll grumble and sulk around a couple of hours, reading newspapers and trying to pick out an idea I might do something with on the show. But I don't really start functioning until noon or later; then about two I go to the studio and the pace begins to quicken.
