Look, everybody in journalism has a reputation of sorts.

Circumstantial evidence is evidence.

We in the press like to say we're honest brokers of information, and it's just not true. The press does have an agenda.

I have met guys who work the overnight shift at 7-11, selling Slurpees and Camels to insomniacs who have more introspection than a lot of people in the mainstream media.

The evening news is a concept whose time has come and gone.

The most meaningless term in the English language is "I take full responsibility." When a politician utters those words it means absolutely nothing.

I didn't say one negative word about poor people or about middle-class people or anything else. All I said was that the rich deserve our gratitude.

I respect the Kennedy family. I respect their service. They do a tremendous amount of good. You don't blame the children for the sins of the father and all of that.

I mean, I think everybody realizes that calling people racist is a waste of time, nobody buys it anymore.

There's a kind of journalistic narcissism that New York-based journalists are guilty of.

You don't smear somebody as a racist when there is obviously nothing there.

To create an inner peace of mind, be humble, gentle, harmonious, and kind.

The truth is, we never know what life will bring us and we don't have as much control as we might think we have. But we CAN choose how we walk through life and how we spend our time.

May the gods ignore you.

Madmen, criminals, and rapists! Isn’t it fantastic? All the romantic proposals I’ve ever got from anybody. Somebody up there has an extremely dark sense of humour.

High station in life is earned by the gallantry with which appalling experiences are survived with grace.

No kind action ever stops with itself. One kind action leads to another.

Giving other people advice is one of the most irritating and useless activities known to man.

What will happen will happen and I won't waste my time worrying.

I see less difference between a city and a swamp than formerly.

...rapid motion through space elates one.
