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)

    Yet nightly pitch my moving tent,
    A day’s march nearer home.
    James Montgomery (1771–1854)

    The media transforms the great silence of things into its opposite. Formerly constituting a secret, the real now talks constantly. News reports, information, statistics, and surveys are everywhere.
    Michel de Certeau (1925–1986)

    Brian O’Linn was a gentleman born,
    He lived at a time when no clothes they were worn.
    —Unknown. Brian O’Linn (l. 1–2)

    the black wings
    of the

    hospital where
    nothing

    will grow
    —William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)
