We don't realize how hard it was to drive anywhere outside the major cities less than a century ago.

Twitter makes you a comedian in the same way that digital cameras make you a photographer

I remember one of my last shows, the Final Jeopardy! clue was something like 'These two boys' names are top 10 boys' names in the U.S., they both end with the same letter, and they're both names of Jesus' apostles.' Now, obviously that's not a knowable fact.

I would read the atlas for pleasure. I knew it was weird. It was weird.

Being a nerd really pays off sometimes.

During the whole 'Jeopardy' experience, I felt like I was living a bit of a double life, I would be secretly flying out to L.A. to tape new shows, hoping that none of my coworkers would notice the absence and figure out what was going on. 'Jeopardy' tries very hard to keep their secrets.

Knowing lots of answers but being a millisecond slow on the buzzer is indeed very frustrating.
