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)

    Like man and wife who nightly keep
    Inconsequent debate in sleep
    As they dream side by side.
    Robert Graves (1895–1985)

    News of battle! News of battle!
    Hark. ‘Tis ringing down the street
    And the archways and the pavement
    Bear the clang of hurrying feet.
    News of battle. Who has brought it?
    William Edmonstoune Aytoun (1813–1865)

    I think I’m going to have a drink.
    David Mamet, U.S. screenwriter, and Brian DePalma. Elliot Ness (Kevin Costner)

    We are only mortal
    but being mortal
    can defy our fate.
    We may
    by an outside chance
    even win!
    —William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)
