"I must have done about 25,000 promos."

-- Casey Kasem

“If the euro becomes a factor promoting Europe's drifting apart, then the foundation of the European project is destroyed.”
“I'm a pretty strange guy, so it takes a pretty strange thing to make me think that somebody else is strange. I'm really looking forward to something strange happening to me, but it hasn't really happened yet. The strangest thing someone ever told me was that they were watching our show, and they said they should have worn diapers.”
“I have come to a still, but not a deep center, A point outside the glittering current; My eyes stare at the bottom of a river, At the irregular stones, iridescent sandgrains, My mind moves in more than one place, In a country half-land, half-water. I am renewed by death, thought of my death, The dry scent of a dying garden in September, The wind fanning the ash of a low fire. What I love is near at hand, Always, in earth and air.”
“The security light made me feel safe, though I knew that was an illusion. If there's light, you can just see what's coming for you a little more clearly.”
“We must realize that we have a choice. We are responsible for our own good time... When you do something you are proud of, dwell on it a little, praise yourself for it, relish the experience, take it in.”
“I am the queen of spades, I am the wasp that stings, I am the dark serpent. I am the invulnerable animal who passes through fire and is not burned.”

“Existentialists are monumentally and monotonously serious; they don't like to joke.”
