Dick Cavett

It's a rare person who wants to hear what he doesn't want to hear.

To label me an intellectual is a misunderstanding of what that is.

If your parents never had children, chances are you won't either.

I'm a big action junkie. I grew up on the '80s action movies - the bad ones and the good ones.

For the first couple of years I played really bad tennis. It was so bad that they booed me off the court.

I love Chicago. I lived there briefly for three months and kept a boat under one of those space-age buildings. It was very Jetsons.
