    When he started choking up, he had ME tearing up. God, this man is just so incredible. He is the funniest, most honest man I've ever heard of.

    When he talks about his dad touching his head it makes me cry :( Craig is so honest and open, it's so refreshing especially in the world of entertainment. He shows that celebrities are not flawless because at the end of the day we all hurt and experience pain in our lives but also joy and laughter. ....and Craig makes me laugh!

    Craig, so sorry for your loss, but remember your Dad is always with you. My Dad lived to 90, dying in 1999, and I think of and miss him, every day. Thank you for sharing, and being so honest about your feelings. Bless you!

    I´m from Sweden and me and my father also never said "I love you" or something like that. Except when he was lying on the hospital bed hours before dying I leaned down and hugged him and he said "-I love you", I burst into tears and said "-I love you to, please get better". Unfortunately he died just an hour later (he was an alcoholic and drank himself to death at the age of 52). But those last words and that last moment is so important to me...

    Before each of his parents passed - his show began just in time to get me thru the passing of my mom in 2005. Then seeing him be genuine enough to honor his father, then mother made him, without question, THE BEST. THANK YOU CRAIG, FOR BEING YOU! (They'd have to have a special category in the Emmy Awards for him, and they know it

    I don't watch the late late show to laugh. I watch the show every night because I feel like Craig is an old friend I get to visit. After reading his book, I feel like I know this man. His honesty about his own life disarms me and makes me see my failures less as failures and my potential to succeed beyond my wildest dreams as possible. I know lately he appears to other people as not enjoying doing the show, and I wish he could see these messages and how he has affected people.
