A very sharp man with a great sense of humour. He will be missed.

My favorite professor of all time - and by far.

He had an elegant way of analyzing human behavior in terms of the laws of economics - and was a master at demonstrating how our behavior is affected by individual liberty - or lack thereof.

His lectures, books and commentaries taught millions of conservatives how to think straight - and I really don’t think that is an overstatement.

His lectures were so mind-blowing that I actually used to invite my college friends to attend class with me. It was like going to a rock concert.

God bless you, Walter Williams.

Thank you for your service to humanity. May your rest be peaceful.

I’m sorry to hear this. Yet another loss for America and for me, too.

You know ... I’m still grateful for every day and still shoveling, too, knowing there must be a pony in here somewhere, but 2020 has just sucked in almost every way I can think of.

RIP. A terrific Man, economist.
Used to love him subbing for Rush.
His explanations were so logical you couldn’t argue with them.

Wow, what a punch in the gut. I am told that one of my heroes, Dr. Walter Williams, passed away. Walter had an enormous influence on me, from the time I was 13-years old; he was my first guest on Life, Liberty & Levin. I'll discuss more tonight on radio.— Mark R.

Walter liked smoking and he also hated the TSA. Some years ago, the combination of no-smoking regs on planes and intrusive groping by the TSA caused him to vow never to fly by commercial airline again. When he received offers to give speeches that were far enough away that driving was infeasible, he negotiated for a private airplane to take him there.

Good for him!

Walter Williams was my favorite substitute host on Rush’s show. He was brilliant and hilarious, especially when he told wife jokes. RIP

Just when we thought 2020 couldn’t get anymore gloomy, we loose Walter Williams. He was not only a Professor of Economics, he was also a Professor of Common Sense and understanding the nature of man. RIP.

Terrific guy Smart, witty

Long ago when he was substituting for Rush, he was talking about a Dim proposal to “tax” something Dims considered “bad” like ammo

So he said in this time of AIDS, we should tax homosexuality

Those familiar with his style will probably read that and LTAO

Sorry to hear this. He was always my favorite replacement for Rush Limbaugh on the radio.

Walter Williams lived a life to celebrate as a truly free man. Filled with wit and wisdom, never a slave to political correctness or public opinion and followed the Hillbilly Health Triangle - caffeine, nicotine and bacon. He was 84.

Lots of happy angels today to welcome his pearly smile through the pearly gates.

We are all blessed that he shared his life and times with us.
