“I've succeeded beyond my wildest dreams - financially and the amount o...” — Phil Hartman Quote

I've succeeded beyond my wildest dreams - financially and the amount of fun I have in my life.

One of the remarkable things about my career is that it has been marked by steady, incremental progress. No sudden spikes up, and no sudden downfalls, either.

Even at Westchester High in West LA, I was class clown.

I think there's a notion in our society, and it may be valid, that people aren't as funny when they get older. It's a stigma still attached to the rebelliousness of youth.

My brothers and sisters and I spoke in a language called Egg Latin. In the early '50s in Canada, this became a fad way of talking among certain people. It's based on the concept that in every syllable before the vowel and after the preceding constant you insert the word 'egg.' So, my name Phil would be 'Pegghil.'

A heart without dreams is like a bird without feathers.

For many people, the age of 20 is when they first reach adulthood, and it's a time full of ideals and dreams. But when I was 20, a lot of misfortune came along. I spent a year in the hospital and couldn't move, and I was forced to think a lot.

Don't give up your dreams.

Fight for your dreams and success. This is what has always guided me.

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