Hope made me laugh. He made my dad laugh. He made my mom laugh. His specials on TV were always on in my home growing up, not because they were the best shows going, but because something interesting always happened and because it appeared that Hope was having a good time. That's what I try to do when I'm performing. And he's one of the persons I learned that from.

Oh - and for those who think he wasn't honored by his peers - he was also honored 5 times by the Academy Awards and the Guinness people consider him to be the most honored entertainer ever.
