Betty White never lost her sense of humor, and one of her most famous jokes was: “Get at least eight hours of beauty sleep, nine if you’re ugly.” The line perfectly captured the playful wit that made her a television legend.

White often joked about aging, saying laughter and staying positive were the real secrets to a long life. She remained active in entertainment for decades and became one of America’s most beloved comedians before her passing in 2021 at age 99.
