Npr Quotes

He who has once made himself notorious as utterly unprincipled, is not credited even when he speaks the truth Picture Quote #1

God grant that we may contend with other churches as the vine with the olive which of us shall bear the best fruit; but not as the brier with the thistle, which of us shall be most unprofitable Picture Quote #1

An unproductive truth is none. But there are products which cannot be weighed even in patent scales, nor brought to market Picture Quote #1

We can’t dwell upon another’s ingratitude without using up our time and talents unprofitably Picture Quote #1

Take young researchers, put them together in virtual seclusion, give them an unprecedented degree of freedom and turn up the pressure by fostering competitiveness Picture Quote #1

Prepare for the unknown by studying how others in the past have coped with the unforeseeable and the unpredictable Picture Quote #1

Politics aside, it will be hard for any new liberal radio network to outdo the professionalism of NPR Picture Quote #1

When I’m alone, I work sometimes with music, sometimes without and sometimes just listening to NPR Picture Quote #1

I was asked by an NPR reporter once, why don’t I talk about race that often. I said it’s because I’m a neurosurgeon. And she thought that was a strange response.

Fox News is no monopoly. It is a singular minority in a sea of liberal media. ABC, NBC, CBS, PBS, NPR, CNN, MSNBC vs. Fox. The lineup is so unbalanced as to be comical - and that doesn’t even include the other commanding heights of the culture that are firmly, flagrantly liberal: Hollywood, the foundations, the universities, the elite newspapers Picture Quote #1

When I was a bad writer, I would consciously imitate other NPR writers who I thought were wonderful. I suppose that everyone’s artistic practice is different. But I collaborate and sometimes don’t agree at all with my collaborators’ opinions. It forces you to understand why you don’t agree with something: what’s the fight you’re picking Picture Quote #1

The voice I’ve chosen to turn to is that of NPR. With a reputation for some of the finest journalism in the country, the nonprofit organization is renowned for its unbiased stance - to the point that it’s been accused of being both conservative and liberal Picture Quote #1

As much as I’d like to think and as much as people mistakenly think my audience is blue collar people in the heart of America, my audience is basically, in the States, an NPR audience. I play college towns in the summer because that’s who comes to see me Picture Quote #1

They wish the church could be more diverse, but then leave to meet in a coffee shop with other well-educated thirtysomethings who are into film festivals, NPR, and carbon offsets Picture Quote #1

The great thing about working with NPR - and, really, there’s like a million of ‘em - is all the cool stuff I get to do for the public. Meet the president. Hang out at the National Finals Rodeo in Vegas. Drink a $10,000 martini Picture Quote #1

When I got out of undergrad, I had a degree in theater and telecommunications. My first job, I was a news reporter for the local stories for NPR. Then I was a country-western DJ. I did data entry for a yearbook company. In my mid-20s I went back to grad school at NYU, and I specialized in playwriting Picture Quote #1

NPR fired me for telling the truth. The truth is that I worry when I am getting on an airplane and see people dressed in garb that identifies them first and foremost as Muslims. This is not a bigoted statement. It is a statement of my feelings, my fears after the terrorist attacks of 9/11 by radical Muslims Picture Quote #1

Yesterday NPR fired me for telling the truth. The truth is that I worry when I am getting on an airplane and see people dressed in garb that identifies them first and foremost as Muslims. This is not a bigoted statement. It is a statement of my feelings, my fears after the terrorist attacks of 9/11 by radical Muslims Picture Quote #1
