 All he did was make money; the guy couldn't miss, |
| All he did was make money; the guy couldn't miss. He finally ended up in Hawaii, where he bought most of Maui just before the 707 came in and jet travel was possible. All of a sudden Hawaiian real estate mattered, and he had all of it. |
| Baltimore's often called the most northern Southern town. It has a distinct essence. It's definitely post-industrial, definitely Rust Belt, very working-class. I grew up outside of Washington, and I felt I was moving to a completely different place when I moved 30 miles north out of college. |
| Can you do that? Well, probably not on [a broadcast] network. But HBO shows their dramas four times a week. ... I think 3 to 4 million people may see us on Sunday, but by the end of the week it may well be up to 8 or 9 [million] with the repeats. |
| HBO's a lot smarter than NBC. They can afford to be. They don't care if you're watching every show on HBO. If you're a subscriber and you're only getting it for two shows out of 10, they've still got your $17.95. And therein lies all the difference. |
| I covered everything. City general assignment, crime, politics, whatever. I worked on the rewrite desk for a time because I was quick and clean. My bread and butter was city crime and the drug culture in particular. You name it, I could give you eighteen inches of clean copy in twenty minutes on deadline. |
| I tend to suspect that my female characters are, to quote a famous criticism of Hemingway, men with tits. I think it is among my weaknesses and I work harder on those scenes, I think, because I feel vulnerable. |
| I think our show is the most elaborate in terms of what it is trying to say about the American city. I'm proud of what we're trying to address. |
| I would be lying if I said the journalism doesn't reflect my own choices as a reporter and a writer: what to say, what to emphasize, how to say it, what is true or untrue. |
| If I let them, they would drag this out for another 20 years, ... They may be kicking and screaming, but they're going to clean that site up and it's going to be sooner rather than later. |
| It occurred to me, having written a couple of 600-page tomes, that if you want to say something intricate about something as disorganized, confused, and interconnected as an American city, you want to stay for the whole season on a single story, |
| My son Ethan dictates terms and takes all my time. That's pretty perfect when I have the chance to let it occur. |
| One of the sad things about contemporary journalism is that it actually matters very little. The world now is almost inured to the power of journalism. The best journalism would manage to outrage people. And people are less and less inclined to outrage. |
| So, too, for reporters who routinely write stories using morgue clippings for background, or who work to catch up on a competitor?s reportage and err by not independently confirming every single detail. So, too, for every columnist who ever used reported material -- either his own newspaper?s or that of another -- as the given terrain on which to maneuver. A lot of people need to be fired, apparently. |
| The arrival of Tiffany is a significant event for The Fashion Mall and indeed, the entire Indianapolis retail community, ... It again validates one of our core strategies - that the world's greatest retailers want to be at truly preeminent retail properties. |
