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)

    When the newspapers have got nothing else to talk about, they cut loose on the young. The young are always news. If they are up to something, that’s news. If they aren’t, that’s news too.
    Kenneth Rexroth (1905–1982)

    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.
    David Mamet, U.S. screenwriter, and Brian DePalma. Al Capone (Robert DeNiro)

    just like you sitting
    there they come and talk to me, just the same.

    They come to bother us. Why? I said I don’t
    know. Perhaps to find out what we are doing.
    Jealous, do you think? I don’t know.
    —William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)
