(If he enjoyed wearing womens clothes on M*A*S*H) I was doing that before the show. It was a delight.
(Working with Alan Alda) If I wanted a sermon I`d go to church. He just wouldn`t quit. He just kept adding more speeches and more moralistic stuff. After he got famous, he got really pompous. He started thinking he was speaking God`s words - not the lines in the script, not his own personal thoughts. He thought he was speaking the words of God. I think he thought and believed that God was speaking through him. A person like that is not easy to be around.
(On what happened to all the dresses after the show ended) I took them home, okay? Is that what you wanted to hear? Actually, all those dresses were mine. I used my own dresses, bras, panties, hats and shoes.
The benefits from stardom as Klinger outweigh any setbacks. It`s a double-edged sword. What makes you famous is what interferes with getting other roles. But there are things that never would have happened without M*A*S*H" (1972). There certainly would be no Jamie Farr Kroger Golf Classic".
(On why he did Circus Of The Stars) I looked good in the tights. Plus, I have a thing for a woman in clown makeup.
(On Loretta Switt) She was funny and beautiful. A body that just makes a man feel like a real man.
