Quotable Quotes:

"I'm not sure I can confirm the scandalous rumor that John Lithgow is Brad Pitt's uncle."

"[on the constant time-slot changes and ultimate cancellation of 3rd Rock from the Sun (1996)] If NBC had set out to ruin it, they couldn't have done a better job. They kept trying to use us as a weapon instead of a show to be taken care of. It would have been nice to have stayed a big hit, but I'd rather be a great show that nobody was watching than a lousy show that was a big hit, which is the case for most of the others." (IMDB)

"I've always said, If you're nice, they walk over you, and if you stand up for yourself, they won.t be so nice."
