I think the whole policy of pre-emptive war is a serious, serious mistake.

I miss particularly the managing editor role on the 'Evening News.'

The battle for the airwaves cannot be limited to only those who have the bank accounts to pay for the battle and win it.

Walter Cronkite 126 quotes

You think you would react one...

You think you would react one way when a situation develops and, and when the sharp shells are flying, you don't quite stand up like you think you might.

Walter Cronkite 126 quotes

I've got a 12-year-old grandson who, when he was 3 years old, before he could say many other words, could name the different kinds of dinosaurs.

Walter Cronkite 126 quotes

The death of Churchill at 90 ...

The death of Churchill at 90 was one of those watershed moments in which the obituary rises to a special calling beyond the sharing of remembered times. It gave an older generation a rare opportunity to explain something of itself to its children.

We the people have the strength to bring our country from our weak-kneed stumbling gait in the last ranks of reason to the leadership of the great march to environmental victory.

Walter Cronkite 126 quotes

I don't think people ought to...

I don't think people ought to believe only one news medium. They ought to read and they ought to go to opinion journals and all the rest of it. I think it's terribly important that this be taught in the public schools, because otherwise, we're gonna get to a situation because of economic pressures and other things where television's all you've got left. And that would be disastrous. We can't cover the news in a half-hour event evening. That's ridiculous.

Walter Cronkite 126 quotes

We know that no one should te...

We know that no one should tell a woman she has to bear an unwanted child. We know that religious beliefs cannot define patriotism.

Walter Cronkite 126 quotes

It is not the reporter's job ...

It is not the reporter's job to be a patriot or to presume to determine where patriotism lies. His job is to relate the facts.

Walter Cronkite 126 quotes

The fact that you are here to...

The fact that you are here tonight gathered together with us testifies to the fact you understand the need for this organization and the need for redoubling our efforts in this organization to try to assure that democracy as represented by the United States must depend upon a total freedom of religion, which is written into our Constitution, of course, and the mere suggestion that anyone could maintain that one's patriotism, one's devotion to one's country can be judged by one's religion is so vile, so vile that we have to take to the streets indeed and to put it aside.

Walter Cronkite 126 quotes

The ruling class is the rich....

The ruling class is the rich. . . . And those people are so able to manipulate our democracy that they really control the democracy.

Walter Cronkite 126 quotes

A handful of us determine wha...

A handful of us determine what will be on the evening news broadcasts, or, for that matter, in the New York Times or Washington Post or Wall Street Journal. Indeed it is a handful of us with this awesome power.And those [news stories] available to us already have been culled and re-culled by persons far outside our control.

Walter Cronkite 126 quotes

Not only do we have a right t...

Not only do we have a right to know, we have a duty to know what our Government is doing in our name. If there's a criticism to be made today, it's that the press isn't doing enough to put the pressure on the government to provide information.

Walter Cronkite 126 quotes

Putting it as strongly as I can, the failure to give free airtime for our political campaigns endangers our democracy.

Walter Cronkite 126 quotes

I am a news presenter, a news...

I am a news presenter, a news broadcaster, an anchorman, a managing editor - not a commentator or analyst. I feel no compulsion to be a pundit.

Walter Cronkite 126 quotes

I think that being liberal, i...

I think that being liberal, in the true sense, is being nondoctrinaire, nondogmatic, noncomitted to a cause but examining each case on its merits. Being left of center is another thing; it's a political position. I think most newspapermen by definition have to be liberal; if they're not liberal, by my definition of it, then they can hardly be good newspapermen.

Walter Cronkite 126 quotes

Whatever the cost of our libraries, the price is cheap compared to that of an ignorant nation.

Walter Cronkite 126 quotes

For many years, I did my best...

For many years, I did my best to report on the issues of the day in as objective a manner as possible. When I had my own strong opinions, as I often did, I tried not to communicate them to my audience. Now, however, my circumstances are different. I am in a position to speak my mind. And that is what I propose to do.

Walter Cronkite 126 quotes

Television [is] a high-impact medium. It does some things no other force can do-transmitting electronic pictures through the air. Still, as an explored, comprehensive medium, it is not a substitute for print.
