Famous quotes containing the words nbc, nightly, news, brian and/or williams:

    Whether lawyer, politician or executive, the American who knows what’s good for his career seeks an institutional rather than an individual identity. He becomes the man from NBC or IBM. The institutional imprint furnishes him with pension, meaning, proofs of existence. A man without a company name is a man without a country.
    Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)

    Blind with love, my daughter
    has cried nightly for horses,
    those long-necked marchers and churners
    that she has mastered, any and all,
    reigning them in like a circus hand....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    The technological landscape of the present day has enfranchised its own electorates—the inhabitants of marketing zones in the consumer goods society, television audiences and news magazine readerships... vote with money at the cash counter rather than with the ballot paper at the polling booth.
    —J.G. (James Graham)

    You’ve just fulfilled the first role of law enforcement. Make sure when your shift is over you go home alive.
    David Mamet, U.S. screenwriter, and Brian DePlama. Jimmy Malone (Sean Connery)

    they appear youthful, rare

    as the light of a happy eye, live with the grace
    of all that in the mind is fleckless, free and
    naturally to be desired.
    —William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)
