I wrote that President Bush is passing on to President-elect Obama two wars and an economic debacle. I call it a depression. And he is arming Israel against the Palestinians in every way in Gaza.

All presidents rail against the press. It goes with the turf.

I don't think a tough question is disrespectful.

People will never know how hard it is to get information, especially if it's locked up behind official doors where, if politicians had their way, they'd stamp 'top secret' on the color of the walls.

We are the only institution in our society that can question a president on a regular basis and make him accountable. Otherwise, he could be king.

You cannot have a democracy without an informed people.

I'm not anti-Jewish; I'm anti-Zionist.

I'm a liberal, I was born a liberal, I'll be one 'til I die, what else should a reporter be when you see so much and when we have such great privilege and access to the truth?

You can fool a person into going to see a movie with a good trailer.

The moon was gone, but to the magician's eyes the unicorn was the moon, cold and white and very old, lighting his way to safety, or to madness.

You realize just how long youve been away when you get home and start dialing 8 out of habit so you can get access to local calls.

You're in love, that's what your problem is.
