What I also heard about Bobby Brown was that he was not allowed to see his estranged daughter at the service, but I heard yesterday that it was the daughter who said that she did not want to see him. He also complained that he was told to change his seat three times.

I saw parts of the service - some of Stevie Wonder's performance, some of Kevin Costner's tribute, and a few other people I can't exactly recall right now. I had the television on and was doing a few other things around the apartment, so I was glancing at the screen from time to time. It seemed very long, and I don't really have that kind of attention span for celebrity funerals.

But I'm sure there will be lots of highlights tonight on all the news shows.

"For me, there's only my wife..."

"Sure I cook with wine - sometimes I even add it to the food!"

"When life itself seems lunatic, who knows where madness lies?"

"It was a grass harp... And we listened."

"Do any human beings ever realize life while they live it? Every, every minute?"

"No. Saints and poets, maybe... they do some."
