Going to miss him. The people who should have paid heed to him, didn’t.

His idiotic NeverTrumpism evidenced him to be a boorish, impotent academic.

Here’s to hoping his kind won’t be replaced, and I’m not referring to his race.

Dr. Sowell’s writings will be missed. He has shown to me that I must be quite prejudiced. With the death of Milton Friedman, the only two economists that I really trust, Sowell and Williams, are both black.

First saw him interviewed on a provincial educational network here in Ontario ages ago. Have enjoyed him greatly ever since. His retiring from writing at this time is probably the wise thing to do plus he deserves to enjoy some hobby years. His photography is quite good.

He's sharper today than I was at 30!

I can see a lot of Ansel Adams in his black and while photography. Will miss his columns.

To live to a ripe old age with the clarity of thought and the ability to express myself through my art and advocation’s, along with the ability to meet any needs that come before me. That is my prayer.

Doctor, you are indeed fortunate.
