Emmy Quotables
"In essence, this is a story about a gangster. And gangsters are out there taking their kids to college, and taking their kids to school, and putting food on their table. And, hell, let's face it, if the world and this nation was run by gangsters — maybe it is." —David Chase, creator of "The Sopranos," accepting the Emmy for drama series.

"This baby runs on alternative fuel -- Al Gore's tears." —Stephen Colbert, on the leaft blower he brought on stage

"I am going to prove tonight that for once and for all that I'm funnier than Tony Bennett. Done. This will be proof that it's over." —Jon Stewart, nominated along with Bennett for individual performance in a variety or music program, on the red carpet. (Bennett won the Emmy)
