Keith Theodore Olbermann Quotes
- [on being fired by Current TV] I screwed up really big… I thought we could do this. It’s my fault that it didn’t succeed in the sense that I didn’t think the whole thing through. I didn’t say, ‘you know, if you buy a $10 million chandelier, you should have a house to put it in. Just walking around with a $10 million chandelier isn’t going to do anybody a lot of good, and it’s not going to do any good to the chandelier.’ And then it turned out we didn’t have a lot to put the house on to put the chandelier in, or a building permit, and I, I should have known that. And it is, it is my fault at heart … Now, I’ve been in situations in my lifetime where the second I agreed to something, I got that sinking feeling in my stomach and I said to myself on those occasions, ‘Holy goodness, I’ve just made a huge mistake.’
- [From a series of Boston Market advertisements] Eat something!
- [about a hockey goal] He put the biscuit in the basket!
- [about a home-run hit during a baseball game] It’s deep and I don’t think it’s playable!
