Quotes

• “I don't think you could say now that ABC is crasser than the other two networks. But as long as people will accept crap, it will be financially profitable to dispense it. It becomes an ever-descending spiral.”
• “It's a wonderful job for people who have never had a nervous breakdown but always wanted one.”
• “Why don't you fold it five ways and put it where the moon don't shine.”
• “It's a rare person who wants to hear what he doesn't want to hear.”
• “There's so much comedy on television. Does that cause comedy in the streets?”
• “You can, after all, reduce the reasons for watching TV to but two: to be lulled, and to be stimulated. Some people do one sometimes, the other sometimes. Some people do all of one or all of the other.”
