Robert Goulet Quotations

The only good thing about going to the fights is you can go into the green room and you can see some of your old friends that you haven't seen in a long time.

I think that people who have Vegas throat are people who sing from their throats only.

If people like what I do, fine. If they don't, fine.

I only eat one meal a day. Lunch, not dinner.

When you sing a song the way I sing it, you have to use your whole body. It's almost like working out.

Hey, I've been doing what I do for a long time, my friend.

I can tell jokes. I can talk to the audience. I can relax. I can change my songs whenever I want. I can change the tempos. I can change the mood, because I'm in charge.

Why stop now when I'm just getting the hang of it?

You open the show with a bang, then don't come back on for 45 minutes.

But I don't work out. I pay people to do that for me.

Rocky Marciano had such guts and heart. He was something special.

Joe Louis was one of my first heroes.

There's nobody in show business that I dislike so I wouldn't want to get in there to hurt anybody.

Ali and I have become friends over the years. I was on a plane with him one time when he was the champion.

Ali's daughter is fighting and Joe Frazier's daughter is fighting as well.

And of course coming from Massachusetts, Rocky Marciano was my favorite.

I don't watch a lot of featherweight fights yet some of those fights are the best fights ever.

I like being on this stage because it keeps me thinking.

I used to be afraid of looking at the audience.

I used to have trouble in front of an audience. I felt uncomfortable.

I was born in Massachusetts and lived there until I was thirteen years old.

I've been a boxing fan ever since I was a kid.

It's obvious that they're going to want Ali's daughter and Frazier's daughter to fight it out.

When I sing full-on I use my whole body. I open my throat and let it fly out.

So I've been a fight fan for a long time.

You have to remember, I didn't want this life.

If you do a musical you can't change the dialogue; it has been written for you. You can't change the music every night, you have to sing it that way.

I don't work in Las Vegas all the time.

I wouldn’t be without my regular schedule of chiropractic adjustments because of my very strenuous schedule.

I wanted to be a plumber.

I'm a performer. We don't retire.

You play your character and it isn't right to step out of it. You have to stay in that character.
