About
"Bishop Fulton Sheen didn’t wear a watch. But he came out at 22:30 every single time out. How he did it, I never knew. I finally went to him, I said, 'Your Excellency, how can you do this? Do you have a clock in your head?' He said, 'When you’ve been teaching in Catholic universities as long as I have, you know exactly how long to talk.'" - Ted Bergmann, Network Executive/Advertising Executive
