Talk:Bob Keeshan

Actual source of "secrets of finding time" quotation?
I noticed that the quotation "One of the big secrets of finding time is not to watch television." is sourced to a New York Times obituary article on Keeshan. Does anybody know the actual source of this quotation? Some interview from years back, or maybe his biography? I had seen the line attributed to him on IMDB, but IMDB is notorious for not having much sourcing on their quotations, and I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of the people running articles on his death just blindly copied whatever stuff they found on-line like this.

 * Geezerbill What are you asking for? According to the information in the New York Times, it came from a question posed to him presumably by one of the NYT writers. Is that what you wanted to know? TeleComNasSprVen (talk) 09:44, 16 March 2014 (UTC)

 * OK, I see it now at the very end of that article. The context that they put it in makes it sound more credible than I suspected. Thanks! Geezerbill (talk) 21:02, 16 March 2014 (UTC)
 * I turned the link into a reference, with the full context of the answer quoted. It seems that a number of the quotations from Keeshan come from the same article, so maybe some clean-up is in order here. After seeing different pages handle the sourcing differently, I'm honestly not sure anymore what the "right" was is to this. Geezerbill (talk) 21:17, 16 March 2014 (UTC)
 * The quotes are arranged in the standard chronological format, with earliest citations first. I removed the footnote formatting, because interlinear citations are the standard form used here. ~ ♞☤☮♌Kalki·†·⚓⊙☳☶⚡ 21:31, 16 March 2014 (UTC)
