I was watching YouTube clips last night of interviews with him. Very significant fellow in my opinion. Had his head on pretty straight.

William F. Buckley, Jr., writing in National Review, put it more simply: “He is probably the most skillful writer in America — I mean by that he can do more things with words than anyone else.”

I remember his being interviewed by (I think) Johnny Carson. As the interview progressed, a long ‘comma’ of his comb over started to descend down his forehead. I don’t think he or Carson were aware of it, but the studio audience was and every time the comma dropped a bit more, the audience started to chuckle. Now what he was saying wasn’t that funny and he started to look a bit uncomfortable. Anyway, the hair kept dropping and the audience kept laughing until finally they broke for a commercial. When they came back, his hair was back in place.
