I remember having dinner in Belfast on the eve of the Good Friday peace referendum. Maureen Dowd [The Ditz] of the New York Times, Mary McGrory [The Crone] of the Washington Post, Mike Barnicle [The Liar] of the Boston Globe and I all sat around the table. We all had our roots in Ireland, and I loved it...But I can't kid myself. I never made their world. They were the best writers in the business.

To shoot that low ... and miss.

Chris Matthews gives hubris a good name.

You can always tell the character of a man by knowing whom he idolizes.
