Dan Whitney Quotations

I got in this business because of Steve Martin playing a banjo with an arrow through his head. You have to be really smart to play a dumb guy.

Over all, I don't think the economy looks that bad here.

People are starting to see that earnings aren't as bad as they initially thought. It's boosting a market that got pretty beat up.

The big driver of the market lately has been oil. That storm isn't going to hit and it looks positive for the market.

It's unbelievable. I just wanted to do stand-up because it was fun and it was a good job and I could make a good living at it.

I befriended a lot of them. You'd get a call from Dennis Miller and go hang out at the mall. They helped you develop your material and they'd show you the ropes.
