Trivia and Quotes

Quotes
  • Hollywood sucks. I`ve got the bruises to prove it.
  • I`ve been in Hollywood for over 40 years. I`ve worked on over 100 shows and movies. But I`m famous for being a homophobic, perverted, leering, dirty old man who peeps on young girls and verbally abuses his wife. When I die, they`re going to say "Mr. Roper died." They won`t even use my real name.
  • [On rival Jack Klugman]: What has he got that I haven`t got? What did he do differently? I could have killed as Oscar. I would have been great as Quincy. I wouldn`t have been so hammy. Klugman over-acted every scene. You want the show to be good, pick me. You want a chain smoking jackass who ruins any credibility for your project I`ll give you Klugman`s number.
  • I liked Dean and Sammy and Frank. They were great. Joey (Bishop) and Peter (Lawford), were creeps. Bishop kept looking at me funny when I changed. Don`t get me started on Lawford.
  • If I could do it all over again, I`d be the mailman. I love housewives and I hate dogs. What more is there?
  • They made a Mr. Roper doll. It looked nothing like me. Some people said it was too ugly, some people said it was too good looking.
  • I enjoyed acting and marveled that one could get paid for doing it.
