How to write a note to the log without involving data step compiler or macro processor?

%put I am crazy; /*% is a macro token , so not allowed*/

data _null_;

put 'I am crazy'; /*executed by data step compiler , so not allowed*/

run;

Any ODS possibility?

If you can rely on the fact that a global statement is echoed to the log:

SYSECHO "Here is my SAS log note.";
