    • Quotes
      • Ed McMahon: [on gifts from fans that he has forgotten to pass on to Johnny] There was one cake that I didn't give you, because it had an obscenity on it - so that was the only thing I didn't give you.
      • Johnny Carson: Didn't see that.
      • Ed McMahon: It had a suggestion for you... which was impossible, so I didn't give it to you.
