“Sir Walter, being strangely surprised and put out of his countenance at so great a table, gives his son a damned blow over the face. His son, as rude as he was, would not strike his father, but strikes over the face the gentleman that sat next to him and said ''Box about: twill come to my father anon.''”
John Aubrey
“With the single exception of Homer, there is no eminent writer, not even Sir Walter Scott, whom I can despise so entirely as I despise Shakespeare when I measure my mind against his”
George Bernard Shaw
“A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out.”
Walter Winchell
“Most of the media... is positioning the merger with Compaq and the recent actions by Walter Hewlett and David Packard as a fight between the past and the future.”
Carly Fiorina
“Walter [Cronkite] sang me a little sea chantey. The verse ended, 'Just watch your back with Dan [Rather], dear, just watch your back with Dan.'”
Connie Chung
“Errol Flynn died on a 70-foot boat with a 17-year-old girl. Walter has always wanted to go that way, but he's going to have to settle for a 17-footer with a 70-year-old.”
Walter Cronkite
“I think they've played excellent. David stepped up big game in the Ole Miss game and Walter has been stepping up ever since he's been starting. To me, I can't really ask them for too much more. They are doing the best that I think they can do, as far as being freshmen and all. They don't really know a whole lot, they are just playing the best they can play. I think they're doing a great job.”
