- Quotes
Roger Ebert: Whenever he interviewed someone for his newspaper or for television, Gene Siskel always liked to end with the same final question: "What do you know for sure?" Okay, Gene, what do I know for sure about you? Well, you were one of the smartest, funniest, quickest men I've ever known, and one of the best reporters. It was almost impossible to tell you anything you didn't already know. Your friend, Bob Green, wrote in the paper that sometimes you seemed like a wise old man, and on other days, you seemed eleven years old. And I know for sure that seeing a truly great movie made you so happy that you'd tell me a week later your spirits were still high. I know you are a man who loved your family deeply and fiercely, your wife, Marleen, your teenage daughters, and your young son.
