I love his comment in the article:

Newman was half of one of the most successful showbiz marriages -- to Joanne Woodward, whom he married in 1958. He observed that just because he was a sex symbol there was no reason to commit adultery.

"Why would I go out for a hamburger when have steak at home?" he asked.

Love that quote too. That's a great example.

Of all his movies, I think the one I liked the most was Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. But he does have quite a few great ones.

I think he was an amazing man and such a good example. I always admired his love for his wife. Too bad we don't have more examples like his (I mean in Hollywood).

I love old movies and I'm sure Turner Classics will be playing his movies -- can't wait!

You all aware that all the profits from his Newman brands goes to charity. No profit in it for him.

Very aware. Also very aware of all his camps for children with terminal illnesses.

Great man and great inspiration.
