From Hal Holbrook of Mark Twain Tonight:

"What you give us on the stage is special. Nobody can do what you do. It's a surprising work of theatre artistry and watching you carries us back to the long line of true actors. For me you are an original and I appreciate the things you say about me. But no one can do what you do. It's a kind of shock to watch you because you are so good. Keep it going."
