Eddie Albert's quotes

• I don't really care how I am remembered as long as I bring happiness and joy to people.
• What's the most important thing in the world? It's love, and I look at that as an energy, not a sentiment.
• [on his post-war career]: I took everything they could throw at me, pictures like The Dude Goes West (1948) and Affairs of Sally (1950). I worked myself back up, but I never wanted to be a star. I was aiming to play the star's best friend.
• [on Green Acres (1965)]: The comedy is like "Pickwick Papers", or "Gulliver's Travels", or Voltaire. It's so far out that it becomes truth, deep truth.
• [About Green Acres (1965)]: The show is a comment on how insane our society is. The writing was very light and very weird, but it had a profound base under it that none of us knew. Come to think of it, neither did we.
• Our priority today, as I see it, is not just conservation, but survival. Not the moon or Mars or even Vietnam, but keeping ourselves alive!
• Mankind must survive, the extinction of our national forestry, birds and fish must be stopped. For without it, we face total disaster. We must try to clean up this country's air and water system.
• [In 1965]: I'm allergic to monotony, not to work.
• [In 1966]: You can't just push a button and turn on a blaze of family happiness, you must feel close all the time, every day.
• [In 1987]: I said I shouldn't really discuss that, because if we really did, she'd faint. But I said, 'The lady of the house here, she lets me sleep with her.' And she kind of went, 'umph mumph' and left.
• [on turning 82 in 1988]: I'm happy to be alive. I've had three pieces of cake otherwise I'm looking after my health.
• I've always had it. I have a little garden where I grow vegetables. And I always wanted to own a small piece of land, near the woods - not to make a buck, but to watch things grow.
• [Of his interest lying with ecology]: I've been a conservationist all my life, but in the last four years, times have changed, and the problem is not so much conservation as it is human survival.
• [In 1975]: People don't know how good vegetables taste, until they grow their own, and it's also very comforting to know you can still provide for yourself in this day and age.
• My real concentration is the development of bluegreen algae. It is an organic substance which he says will act as a fertilizer and allow farming with only a small amount of water.
• [on his popularity while playing the seventy-something Frank MacBride on Switch]: What else is there? It can't be the plots. They're the same as for every other detective show on the air.
• Because I couldn't get work in pictures, I put a club act together with my wife and it caught on pretty well. Finally, Ed Sullivan invited us to appear on Toast of the Town.
• [on reviving "Room Service" with son Edward] Comedy is the most difficult thing to play, and I wanted to give Edward a lesson in doing farce.
