A Quote by Bob Newhart

I was not influenced by Jack Benny, and people have remarked on my timing and Jack's timing, but I don't think you can teach timing. It's something you hear in your head.

Jack Benny, Fred Allen. Their jokes were wonderful. It takes skill to be funny. The timing of Jack Benny was so fine. It is a form of genius for which we should be grateful.

Kurt Vonnegut

My idol was Jack Benny and he was the master of subtlety and timing.

Don Knotts

I'd say that, to be a good deal maker, you have to have three basic characteristics - timing, timing, and timing.

Richard Armitage

I'd say that, to be a good deal maker, you have to have 3 basic characteristics - timing, timing, and timing.

Richard Armitage

I don't know if I have actually good comedic timing. But I don't think I've worked at any timing. I think timing is probably something you can't work at. Well, I don't know. I definitely didn't work at it.

Mary McCormack

Everybody I know who is funny, it's in them. You can teach timing, or some people are able to tell a joke, though I don't like to tell jokes. But I think you have to be born with a sense of humor and a sense of timing.

Carol Burnett

There are some people who were born with good timing, and I think my comic timing is pretty solid.

John Ross Bowie

There is timing in the whole life of the warrior, in his thriving and declining, in his harmony and discord. Similarly, there is timing in the Way of the merchant, in the rise and fall of capital. All things entail rising and falling timing. You must be able to discern this.

Miyamoto Musashi

I think, in comedy, timing is everything. You and I could tell the same joke, but if one of our timing is off, it won't be as funny. You've gotta know when to deliver your punch-lines.

T.I.

A lot of things matter in comedy - the script, the lines, your timing, the co-actor's timing, how it's shot.

Jitendra Kumar

I don't think comic timing is the same as music timing, but I definitely find that I've learned from just writing in general that songs can be narrative without having a story.

Steve Martin

Acting is all about timing. I mean, who has better timing than the MCs?

Coolio

Good timing is invisible. Bad timing sticks out a mile.

Tony Corinda

There is timing in everything. Timing in strategy cannot be mastered without a great deal of practice.

Miyamoto Musashi

It is actually crazy because with our wrestling career, our coaches were always blown away by our timing, and they always remarked how our chemistry and timing is always perfect. Just being twins, we have that. We don't have to talk; we don't have to communicate. It just happens.

Brie Bella

Timing is so important! If you are going to be successful in dance, you must be able to respond to rhythm and timing. It's the same in the Spirit. People who don't understand God's timing can become spiritually spastic, trying to make the right things happen at the wrong time. They don't get His rhythm - and everyone can tell they are out of step. They birth things prematurely, threatening the very lives of their God-given dreams.
