W C Fields said -

(Asked if he believed in clubs for women, Fields responded:) "Yes, if every other form of persuasion fails."

All the men in my family were bearded, and most of the women.

Back in my rummy days, I would tremble and shake for hours upon arising. It was the only exercise I got.

Charlie McCarthy: "Say, Mr. Fields, I read in the paper where you consumed two quarts of liquor a day. What would your father think about that?" WC: "He'd think I was a sissy."

Horse sense is the thing a horse has which keeps it from betting on people.

I am free of all prejudices. I hate everyone equally.

I don't believe in dining on an empty stomach.

I once spent a year in Philadelphia, I think it was on a Sunday.

If at first you don't succeed, try again. Then quit. There's no use being a xxxx about it.

WHY WAIT FOR TO-MORROW AND WASTE A BEAUTIFUL DAY.

A person only thinks he needs money to survive
usually when he has none

I always thought it was "I'd rather be here than in Philadelphia."

All things considered, I'd rather be in Philadelphia.

That's how I remember it.
