Climb Quote by Ken Berry
“It's very difficult for me to explain myself. I used to park blocks away from NBC when I went to work there so I wouldn't have to tell the gate-man who I was. He'd always repeat 'Who?' And I'd have to go through who I was again and where I was working. So I'd just park on the street and find a fence I could climb over.”
