I Like Getting Up In The Morning,

That's The Heart Of It: My Shows Were Not That Controversial With The American People. They Were Controversial With The People Who Think For The American People.

We Had Two African American Writers [eric Monte And Michael Evans] On The Show ['good Times'] That Knew Cabrini Green Inside And Out, And That's Why We Set It There.

I Don't Know How You Can Look Back With Regret If You're At A Moment When Everything Seems Fine.

I Looked At Enough Of American Idol In The First Weeks, And They're All About Humiliation. I Listen To Rush Limbaugh Because I Find It So Repulsive. There Are People With A Little Less Sophistication Who Watch A Lot Of It, Because We Allow Things To Appeal To Our Baser Instincts. But At The Same Moment, Give Me A Little Choice, And I'll Make A Better Decision, Because I Have That Ability Too. And So Does Everybody Else.

Ed Simmons And I Became Stars In The Emerging Medium Of Television. We Were New And Fresh, Just Like Tv At The Time, So We Automatically Became 'the' Comedy Writers For Television.
