“We got to keep on being a success.”

The song is ended, but the melody lingers on.

Got no checkbooks, got no banks. Still I’d like to express my thanks – I’ve got the sun in the mornin’ and the moon at night.

A patriotic song is an emotion and you must not embarrass an audience with it, or they will hate your guts.

Music is so important. It changes thinking, it influences everybody, whether they know it or not. Music knows no boundary lines.

Gos bless America, my home sweet home.

Our attitudes control our lives. Attitudes are a secret power working twenty-four hours a day, for good or bad. It is of paramount importance that we know how to harness and control this great force.

The toughest thing about success is that you’ve got to keep on being a success.

Heaven… I’m in heaven, and my heart beats so that I can hardly speak.

The world would not be in such a snarl, had Marx been Groucho instead of Karl.

All alone by the telephone.

Talent is only a starting point in business. You’ve got to keep working that talent.

I’m dreaming of a white Christmas, Just like the ones I used to know, Where the tree tops glisten And children listen To hear sleigh bells in the snow.

You can’t write a song out of thin air you have to feel and know what you are writing about.

Talent is only a starting point.

God bless America, land that I love, Stand beside her, and guide her, Through the night, with the light from above, From the mountains, to the prairies To the oceans, white with foam God bless America, my home sweet home, God bless America! My Home Sweet Home!

I long to be out in the sun with no work to be done.
