10 QUOTES WITH «WALTER»

Famous quotes and sentences with the word Walter.
1
Jill Abramson
With the fragmentation of television audiences and the advent of cable and on-demand services, the prestige of being an anchor is not what it was in the days of Walter Cronkite.
2
Shaun Alexander
I grew up loving Walter Payton. My dad used to always show us film of him.
3
Billy Al Bengston
For me, the heyday was in 1959. It was before the Ferus Gallery moved across the street, in the days when Ed Kienholz and Walter Hopps ran it. At that time, art was taken very seriously in terms of being an artist, and not as a profession.
4
Conrad Black
Walter Cronkite was a personally decent and convivial man, who literally couldn't kill a fly, was kind to his children, generally helpful to juniors, authentically curious about the news, and, in his time, an energetic reporter.
5
Jack Black
Back in the '70s, like one of my favorite movies ever was 'The Bad News Bears', and that was a kids' movie, but I don't think of it that way. I think of it as just a great movie because Walter Matthau was so funny and so harsh with those kids.
6
Les Claypool
I love character actors. If I'm switching channels, and something with Slim Pickens is on, or Walter Brennan, I'm stuck. I have to watch it.
7
Arthur Cohn
It is absolutely my conviction, that Walter Salles will figure among the great directors of our time.
8
Bob Cousy
We had a strong relationship with Walter Brown, and felt that he was the best owner in the league.
9
Jeff Daniels
I went to Walter Reed hospital a couple of times to visit wounded soldiers, kids with no legs and one arm. You start to question some things.
10
Howard Fineman
As Walter Cronkite would say, that's the way it is.
