Bud Abbott - biography

“Well, I always had a chauffer, because I have never driven a car in my life.  I still can’t drive.”

“Once they get their hooks into you, you’re a dead pigeon.”

“They liked me so long as the liquor flowed at my house, but I haven’t seen any of them around lately.”

“It gets so boring at home.  After all, how many reruns of Abbott and Costello movies can a guy watch on television?”

“Sitting at home the way I do, I’d just love the hear from people.  It’d be a great help in passing the time.”

“Now, on the St.  Louis team we have Who’s on first, What’s on second, I Don’t Know is on third.”

“That’s why so many stars are making pictures in Europe today.  The tax guys are making thieves out of everybody.”

“They disallowed this and disallowed that, and now I can’t even get my head above water!”

“You never heard of a comedy team that didn’t fight, did you?”
