I was still in college when 'To Kill a Mockingbird' came out in 1960. I remember it had a kind of an electrifying effect on this country; this was a time when there were a lot of good books coming out.

I remember the N64 coming out. That was a beautiful day.

I remember when first, Stripes, and then Animal House came out - which I was really proud of, even though it was kind of loose and quite raucous - there were imitative movies that were not quite as good.

Life is so fast. And I still remember when I came up to the big leagues and played as if it were yesterday. Time flies.

When I read 'To Kill a Mockingbird,' I was so struck by the universality of small towns.

I'm a dirt road out in the country kind of person, but I remember thinking, I could live in Chicago.
