“I remember being in New Orleans after Katrina hearing people calling, ...” — David Muir Quote

I remember being in New Orleans after Katrina hearing people calling, 'Help me,' and wanting to slide down in the seat of my car because it felt like I was invading their suffering. But I also know that our being there gave them a voice.

There's something about a sign-off that seems predictable. I just say whatever comes to my mind, to the pleasure and horror of the control room, I'm sure.

When we get news 24 hours a day, I think people need the evening newscast more than ever.

The evening news is evolving rapidly, and I think we have to be extraordinarily nimble.

I think that with our 'Made in America' segments, where we go out to these factories all around the country, is essentially giving people a high-five and signal to them that we're in this together.

In Madrid, there's a big street in the centre called Callao. I remember being there with my mum and pointing to one of the big film posters and saying, 'I want to be up there.' That was my dream, and I got it.

You get to choose the bond of lifelong friendships, of being there for the darkest and happiest of times.

For me, every show that's about teachers - and there's been a number of them - they're like misfits who hate the kids and don't want to be there and hate their jobs. For me, having crazy parents, my teachers were the sane people who raised me, and they liked being there.

When you go to a film set, of course you're going to do your job, and you're excited about being there, but you somehow feel fatigued that you are just doing this day in and day out.
