If I do a series or tapes for the States and it's sponsored by somebody for the public broadcast system, I am committed to going on tour around various stations.

The public library system of the United States is worth preserving.

Getting to places like Bangkok or Singapore was a hell of a sweat. But when you got there it was the back of beyond. It was just a series of small tin sheds.

A free public broadcast license is a privilege.

(I was) immediately mortified that maybe somebody else had said that earlier in the broadcast, because I didn't know where the line came from. It was spinning around in my head, I guess. But I said it, and as it turns out, no one else had said it.

We've done walking tours before, ... Citizens Bank has sponsored them to take them to a new level.
