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)

    Little do such men know the toil, the pains,
    The daily, nightly racking of the brains,
    To range the thoughts, the matter to digest,
    To cull fit phrases, and reject the rest.
    Charles Churchill (1731–1764)

    ‘What news, what news, my proud young porter,
    What news, what news has thou brought to me?’
    Unknown. Young Beichan (l. 57–58)

    ... cooking is just like religion. Rules don’t no more make a cook than sermons make a saint.
    Anonymous, U.S. cook. As quoted in I Dream a World, by Leah Chase, who was quoted in turn by Brian Lanker (1989)

    Oh is that
    all? I tho’t it was something else. Oh
    they jump and run too. I wish you had been
    there, I was so interested to hear about it.
    —William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)
