More quotes by Barbara Walters
The news media in general are liberals.
Barbara Walters
[President Obama] made so many promises. We thought that he was going to be -- I shouldn't say this at Christmastime -- but the next messiah.
Barbara Walters
Show me someone who never gossips, and I'll show you someone who isn't interested in people.
Barbara Walters
To not sing with an orchestra, to not be able to communicate through my voice, which I've done all my life, and not to be able to phrase lyrics and give people that kind of joy, I think I would be totally devastated.
Barbara Walters
I didn't get ahead by sleeping with people. Girls, take heart!
Barbara Walters
Every genius I have met could be classified as crazy by most people. They possess the highest level of sanity that us people find difficult to understand and accept.
Barbara Walters
The news media in general are liberal. If you want to be a reporter, you are going to see poverty and misery, and you have to be involved in the human condition.
Barbara Walters
No one could ad lib like Peter. You would think that it was all scripted, he was so poetic, but it wasn't.
Barbara Walters
I first interviewed Fidel Castro 39 years ago. He was charming and fiercely guarded about his private life. He called our interviews 'fiery debates.' During our times together, he made clear to me that he was an absolute dictator and that he was a staunch opponent of democracy.
Barbara Walters
A conversation isn't a competition.
Barbara Walters
I didn't have a very religious family.
Barbara Walters
Large cocktail parties are an infamous technique for ridding yourself of social obligations to people you usually don't know well or like much, which is such an unpromising beginning that I've rarely known one that recovered and turned into a great party.
Barbara Walters
Homogeneity is much to be admired - in milk, for instance - but not for parties.
Barbara Walters
It would be nice to feel that we are a better world, a world of more compassion and a world of more humanity, and to believe in the basic goodness of man.
Barbara Walters
Most old people ... are disheartened to be living in the ailing house of their bodies, to be limited physically and economically, to feel an encumbrance to others - guests who didn't have the good manners to leave when the party was over.
Barbara Walters
For Castro, freedom starts with education. And if literacy alone were the yardstick, Cuba would rank as one of the freest nations on Earth.
Barbara Walters
If it's a woman it's caustic, if it's a man it's authority, If it's a woman it's too pushy, if it's a man it's aggressive in the best sense of the word.
Barbara Walters
A woman can do anything. She can be traditionally feminine and that's all right she can work, she can stay at home she can be aggressive she can be passive she can be any way she wants with a man. But whenever there are the kinds of choices there are today, unless you have some solid base, life can be frightening.
Barbara Walters
The origin of a modern party is anthropological: humans meet and share food to lower hostility between them and indicate friendship.
Barbara Walters
Although I myself don't go to church or synagogue, I do, whether it's superstition or whatever, pray every time I get on a plane. I just automatically do it. I say the same thing every time.
