Famous quotes containing the words character in, character, radio and/or program:

    “There are certain stereotypes that are offensive. Some of them don’t worry me, though. For instance, I have always thought that Mammy character in Gone with the Wind was mighty funny. And I just loved “Amos ‘n’ Andy” on the radio. So you see, I have enough confidence in myself that those things did not bother me. I could laugh.”
    —Annie Elizabeth Delany (b. 1891)

    “If you will think about what you ought to do for other people, your character will take care of itself. Character is a by-product, and any man who devotes himself to its cultivation in his own case will become a selfish prig.”
    —Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)

    “A bibulation of sports writers, a yammer of radio announcers, a guilt of umpires, an indigence of writers.”
    —Walter Wellesley (Red)

    “To the cry of “follow Mormons and prairie dogs and find good land,” Civil War veterans flocked into Nebraska, joining a vast stampede of unemployed workers, tenant farmers, and European immigrants.”
