Here are some of the notable acceptance speeches from the 69th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards.

Best Supporting Actor, Comedy: Alec Baldwin

I suppose I should say, At long last, Mr. President, here is your Emmy.

I want to thank my wife. My wife and I had three children in three years and we didn’t have a child last year during the S.N.L. season. I wonder if there is a correlation there. All you men up there, you put that orange wig on, it’s birth control, trust me.

[LAUGHTER]

Thank you to Lorne, always to Lorne, Thank you to Chris and Sarah and Kenward, and to all the great writers at S.N.L. Congratulations to Kate and to — thank you to the cast. Thank you to Lindsey and to Grace for making me feel welcome there. Thank you to Steve Higgins for giving me a lot of encouragement.

I just want to say — if I leave anybody out I’m sorry — but I do want to get this in — which is, you know, I always remember what someone told me — that is when you die you don’t remember a bill that Congress passed or a decision the Supreme Court made, or an address made by the president. You remember a song. You remember a line from a movie. You remember a play. You remember a book. A painting. A poem. What we do is important. And for all of you out there in motion pictures and television, don’t stop doing what you are doing. The audience is counting on you. Thank you.
