My mother would say, before I left the house, 'Remember Art, hugs are better than drugs.' And I believed my mother, I believed everything she said - until the first time I got high at a party.

Vegas means comedy, tragedy, happiness and sadness all at the same time.

People are so nice, you know. It's such a credit to Howard Stern - the audience base that he created is such a special thing. It took him a long time to create this family of fans, and I was lucky to be a part of that for a while.

All I can say is that you only realize how big your mountain is once you're laying motionless, helpless, and hopeless in the valley below.

When I encountered rich people for the first time, I discovered that not only do they holiday in places that are hard to find on a map, but that they also use the names of seasons as verbs. When they asked me, 'Where did you summer and winter growing up?' I would usually say, 'As a child? The same place I springed and autumned.'

If I get lucky enough one day to have Howard's money and life... Actually, you know what, if I ever get Howard money I am going to retire.
