"I didn't mind that he thought I was dead, but I was a little upset about the fact that he was unhappy I was still alive." • Forman, on "The" Ohio State University: "I've certainly been perplexed by their saying 'The' … I figured, well, it's one syllable.

I like a Michigan audience, because you can say 'alliteration' and not have to explain it." • Forman, on Jim Brandstatter: "Those of you who know Jim and me know we've made a public display of putting each other down at banquets like this, over the years.
