Billy Crystal's opening line in his tribute to longtime friend Robin Williams at Monday night's Emmy Awards was deceptively simple, but boiled down all the words written and said about the comic to one basic truth. "He made us laugh, every time you saw him on TV, movies, nightclubs, arenas, hospitals, homeless shelters," Crystal said of a friend he made nearly 40 years ago, working comedy clubs on both coasts. He spoke of the "many happy hours" spent with Williams. "He was the greatest friend you could ever imagine. Supportive, protective, loving. It's very hard to talk about him in the past because he was so present in all of our lives, for almost 40 years the brightest star in the comedy galaxy."
