Meet them once and you're innocent; meet them twice and you're not. So if you see me having drinks again with Harvey Weinstein then, okay, you've got me.

I envision a future where there'll be 300 million reporters, where anyone from anywhere can report for any reason. It's freedom of participation absolutely realized.

I'm not mean.

The first step in good reporting is good snooping.

All truths begin as hearsay, as far as I'm concerned.

Because I have success, it doesn't mean I'm part of the mainstream. I'm still an outsider.

You would be amazed what the ordinary guy knows.

I've written thousands of stories, started hundreds of news cycles.

There's a danger of the Internet just becoming loud, ugly and boring with a thousand voices screaming for attention.

Not everything I do is gossip or bedroom. To the contrary, I think that's just an easy label to dismiss me and to dismiss the new medium.

Some of the best news stories start in gossip. Monica Lewinsky certainly was gossip in the beginning. I had heard it months before I printed it.

I never think too far into the future. I'm too busy thinking about tomorrow's news.

I do most of my business on that dirty Internet that you were just talking about, where I find there is a lot of freedom to report exactly what I want.

If the first lady is concerned about this Internet cycle, what would she have done during the heyday when there was 12, 13 editions of a paper in one day? What would she have done with that news cycle?

The media is comparable to government-probably passes government in raw power.

If technology has finally caught up with individual liberty, why would anyone who loves freedom want to rethink that?

There's nothing more exciting than to watch a story break and grow, and to be the first one to present it to the world.

It seems to me we are losing our way in an effort to get the ratings.

With a modem, anyone can follow the world and report on the world-no middle man, no big brother. I guess this changes everything.

I cover media people the way they cover politicians.

There won't be editors in the future with the Internet world, with citizen reporting. That doesn't scare me.

I want one place I can go that is not going to be lewd, and I'm not sure there is anything left.

I didn't go to the right schools, didn't come from a well-known family, nor was I even remotely connected to a powerful publishing dynasty.

I don't necessarily think anything on a Web site can have a result.

Television saved the movies. The Internet is going to save the news business.

I was first to break the news about the death of Lady Diana. The CNN team couldn't get into makeup fast enough.

A lot of the stories are internal. They leak it to me wanting to get attention, wanting to get that headline. More times than not, I will not give it to them.

The Internet feeds off the main press, and the main press feeds off the Internet. They're working in tandem.

I follow my conscience - and this is upsetting to some people, but I maintain the conscience is going to be the only thing between us and communication in the future.

Meet them once and you're innocent; meet them twice and you're not. So if you see me having drinks again with Harvey Weinstein then, okay, you've got me.

We have entered an era vibrating with the din of small voices. Every citizen can be a reporter, can take on the powers that be.

If you have children, you don't want to have drugs and drinks in the house. It's just not good.

I used to be a good party boy. I'm old. I'm an old man. You pay the consequences. I'm just fine with a couple of drinks, no more than that.

A man is a fool if he drinks before he reaches the age of 50, and a fool if he doesn't afterward.

Everyone drinks more during a recession; they want to forget.

My books are like water; those of the great geniuses are wine. (Fortunately) everybody drinks water.

All men, even those we call savages, have been so tormented by the passion for strong drinks, that limited as their capacities were, they were yet able to manufacture them.

It's a fairly recent thing but I've become very fond of making drinks myself.

An alcoholic is someone you don't like who drinks as much as you do.

I'm not trying to find another thing that's wrong with me, but I'm such a nice person, and I have a couple of drinks and I'm really good fun and then I'm really not fun.

In football, there were drinks available everywhere you looked. On a golf tournament, you could find one free anywhere you wanted it. In tennis and NBA basketball, everybody had a hospitality suite, and so you could go there and load up if you wanted to.

I'd rather see you drink a glass of wine than a glass of milk. So many people drink Coca-Cola and all these soft drinks with sugar. Some of these drinks have 8 or 9 teaspoons of sugar in them What's the good of living if you can't have the things that give a little enjoyment?

If I can wake up everyday before I die and know that I don't have to serve anyone food or drinks, I will be happy!

I've got a stag weekend coming up and I've said I'm not doing anything more than a few drinks. I won't have it. I'll go home and watch Antiques Roadshow.

May this house stand until an ant drinks the ocean and a tortoise circles the world.

We all need to take a deep breath and think about being a Bush daughter and having that cross to bear. I'd go out and have a couple of drinks too.

One can drink too much, but one never drinks enough.

My books are water; those of the great geniuses are wine - everybody drinks water.

The other day at a drive-through, I reminded the teenage girl serving me that she forgot my drinks. She looked at me, hissed, rolled her eyes, and then took her sweet time getting me the sodas.
