Daily Inspiration Quote by Ruth Buzzi

"I really enjoyed doing the voice of Nose Marie on the cartoon series Pound Puppies. Fun, FUN cast"

About this Quote

A working actor’s pride can sound almost disarmingly plain, and that’s the point. Ruth Buzzi’s line lands like a postcard from the middle of show business: not the glamour mythology, not the tortured-artiste script, just the lived pleasure of a gig that clicked. The doubled “Fun, FUN” isn’t literary flourish so much as performer shorthand - the way you emphasize what matters in a career built on short runs, odd hours, and constant reinvention. She’s telling you the real perk wasn’t the character (“Nose Marie” is a niche brag) but the room: the cast chemistry that makes voice work feel less like isolation in a booth and more like ensemble play.

The subtext is generational, too. Buzzi comes from an era of variety TV and comedy troupes, where you survived by being game, reliable, and good with people. Voice acting for a children’s cartoon could be framed as “lesser” work, especially for someone with her legacy, but she quietly refuses that hierarchy. She treats Pound Puppies as legitimate: a professional home with colleagues worth celebrating.

There’s also a faint note of self-curation. Mentioning a specific role in a specific series reads like a friendly nudge to fans: yes, I was there; yes, I remember; yes, it mattered. In a culture that’s finally giving voice actors more visibility, her enthusiasm doubles as a claim to relevance. Not nostalgia for nostalgia’s sake - a reminder that the best parts of entertainment are often the least ceremonious: a weird character name, a steady paycheck, and a cast that made the day go fast.
