More quotes by Gene Weingarten
My neighborhood is fairly white, yet the local middle school is all black. It is bad. It is very bad.
Gene Weingarten
The total wall is between editorial and newsroom. And unbreachable barrier. For good reason. It doesn't mean the two sides don't talk.
Gene Weingarten
The horrifying thing is that nearly half of America seems in synch with xenophobia and race-baiting.

Johnny Hart became much less funny after he found sobriety, and religion, around the same time.

Rhyme is cool again. It's because of hip-hop. Bless you, hip-hop.

Donald Trump would never belong to a church that required a ten percent hit. He's too smart.
Gene Weingarten
Being Jewish is way stronger culturally than it is religiously.
Gene Weingarten
It is a cliche, and it is also true, that humor springs from existential pain - from a need to blunt the awareness that life is essentially a fatal disease of unpredictable symptoms and unknown duration.
Gene Weingarten
I think Trump wants to be dictator. I don't think the courts will allow him to be, and I think that after months of revolting sycophancy, neither will Congress. He will sink to such a popularity trough that even those spineless, craven gophers will cave.
Gene Weingarten
I really value unforgettable moments. Things you can tell people about. We have too few of them in our lives, and it is all too seldom that we can create one such moment for a stranger.
Gene Weingarten
International politics is not my strong suit. The older I get the less certain I am that I even HAVE a strong suit.
Gene Weingarten
Knowing the identity of the leaker helps you analyze the likelihood that the material is real.
Gene Weingarten
Editorials are editorials. They a supposed to have an opinion, even a very strong one.
Gene Weingarten
I personally favor old mechanical watches, but my snobbery does not extend to demanding that all people wear them. My snobbery demands that no one wear a digital.
