Votes are something that you earn.
Tom Brokaw
It will do us little good to wire the world if we short circut our souls. There is no delete button for racism, poverty, or sectarian violence. No key stroke can ever clean the air, save a river, preserve a forest. This transformational new technology must be an extension of our hearts as well as of our mind.
Tom Brokaw
If fishing is a religion, fly fishing is the high church.

Tom Brokaw
I think they are paying a lot more attention to news now, by the way, in part because of national-security issues. A lot of young people have friends or family in the military today.
Tom Brokaw
It is, I believe, the greatest generation any society has ever produced.
Tom Brokaw
I always think there are people looking not so much for information as for reassurance and reaffirmation of their views.
Tom Brokaw
Bias, like beauty, is often in the eye of the beholder. Facts are your firewall against bias.
Tom Brokaw
I wanted to see what was going on in the world. I sometimes think I overwished.
Tom Brokaw
I hope the World War II generation doesn't lose that quality that made them so appealing: their modesty, and the way they are always looking forward and seldom back.
Tom Brokaw
Don't be afraid to do something unconventional, to take a chance, to risk something.
Tom Brokaw
