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.

    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)

    You got an all-out prize fight, you wait ‘til the fight’s over, one guy’s left standing and that’s how you know who’s won.

    That’s what the cat said to the canary when he swallowed him: “You’ll be all right.”
