Jerry Lewis: No, I don’t think that’s true.
DC: They say everybody does that when they get great success at an early age.
JL: I think you’ll find, not unlike Joe Mankiewicz, you’ll find that the dialogue of that nature… that you hear about people who are maligned unfairly and unjustifiably… It usually comes from incompetence. And it usually comes from people who think they’ve been told to jump, when they were in fact not even invited in the room.
You’ll never hear it from heavyweights. You’ll never hear negative things from important people. You’ll only hear productive things and constructive things. There isn’t anybody I can rap or will I rap, at any time, about anything. I may disagree, I may have another opinion, but I respect the fact that they have to that opinion.
And I haven’t go the time to be negative. That makes ya old. And it makes you tired and sick.
