Famous quote by Bennett Cerf

"I play against a front and a back every night, Ming does not have to do that, Duncan does not have to do that, Garnett doesn't do that. I am the only one that has to do that"

"I play a percussion instrument, not a musical saw; it needs no amplification. Where it's needed, they put a microphone in front of the bass drum. But, I don't think it's necessary to play that way every night"

"It is always consoling to think of suicide: in that way one gets through many a bad night"

"By night an atheist half believes in a God"

"To thine own self be true, and it must follow, as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man"

"A man can do only what he can do. But if he does that each day he can sleep at night and do it again the next day"

"Night is the mother of counsels"

"In the country the darkness of night is friendly and familiar, but in a city, with its blaze of lights, it is unnatural, hostile and menacing. It is like a monstrous vulture that hovers, biding its time"

"If the stars should appear but one night every thousand years how man would marvel and stare"
