Bob Hope quotes
It’s hard to confine the life of Bob Hope to one profession or role. He was a stand-up comedian, vaudevillian, actor, singer, dancer, boxer, and author, and appeared in more than 120 films [both short and feature length], and enjoyed a career that spanned more than eighty years.
Throughout his long life, Hope was known to make tours of the United Service Organizations, entertaining American troops who were on active duty in different parts of the world. Today, his published works and extensive catalog of jokes and dialogues are a source of joy and inspiration, and his signature style will live long in the annals of American history.
