"I'm 80 years old, and I don't know what I'm
going to be when I grow up. I can't believe I'm 80. When I was a kid, nobody
was 80. I remember when my uncle visited once, he was 60, and I asked my
brother: 'Do you think he has sex? He's 60, he can't.' I can't believe I'm
living in Beverly Hills with a young wife and two kids [and three grown kids].
I've got a nice car. I love my job. I've got a bagel store, and I have
breakfast every morning with friends I grew up with. I've been in movies, I've
written books -- I don't know how that all happened."—Talk-show host Larry
King, quoted in Tim Appelo, “The King of All Media at 80,” The Hollywood
Reporter, November 22, 2013
