    The more I’ve read and learned about Phyllis, the more fascinating she became. She wasn’t just a comic; she was a classical pianist, a designer, a tough businesswoman, and a mother to five children. Amazing life.

    I love Phyllis she was definitely a wonderful person and woman. She was classy. She didn't have to cuss to get a laugh. She may be gone but she will be missed.

    This is one of the best interviews I have seen of Miss Diller. The interviewer is excellent and doesn't interrupt her like a lot of them seem to do nowadays.

    "A homeless family of seven." Comedy is an amazing source of healing. Phyllis Diller is a powerful force for all girls and women to aspire. Death will never descend on her story of success or her wonderful sense of humour. What an inspiration for all of us. Thanks Phyllis for all the years of smiles and laffter. 1917 - 2012
