A Sermon on Turning the Other Cheek, By Conan O’Brien

A couple years ago you’ll remember Conan O’Brien got the boot from NBC. The way they treated him was unfortunate and arguably unfair. Conan, of course, was hurt. Devastated, in fact. We all knew he was raging.

And yet, when it came time to say his farewell, he stepped to the microphone and gave one of the most remarkable speeches in pop-culture history. In an age of Kanye West casting insults after being insulted, and Miley Cyrus pontificating about how she could care less what people think, O’Brien models remarkable wisdom, if not counter-intuitive integrity.

This week, we revisit the speech using some typography that came from a project out of Oklahoma State University. Great stuff.
