Watch the History Channel if you want it literal and historically perfect.

Secretly I'm a real big nerd. I'd rather stay home and play Scrabble than go to a Hollywood party any day of the week. And I love reading about history and watching the Discovery Channel.

I'll watch any show on the History Channel.

I loved history because to me history was like watching a movie.

I admit it: I had fun watching right-wingers go wild as health reform finally became law.

TV does not care about you or what happens to you. It's downright bad for your health now and that's not a far-out concept. I think watching the TV news is bad for you. It is bad for your physical health and your mental health.

I sit on my duff smoke cigarettes and watch TV. I'm not exactly a poster girl for healthy living.

I can't believe it's been four years now and from watching that pilot we really all looked like babies. It's unbelievable just how far everything has come. I'm happier now than I've ever been on the show and in my life. I really owe so much of my happiness to 'Glee.'

Why does watching a dog be a dog fill one with happiness?

The great and important duty which is incumbent on Christians is to guard against all appearance of evil to watch against the first risings in the heart to evil and to have a guard upon our actions that they may not be sinful or so much as seem to be so.

I don't make jokes. I just watch the government and report the facts.

Mere longevity is a good thing for those who watch Life from the side lines. For those who play the game an hour may be a year a single day's work an achievement for eternity.

I shall the effect of this good lesson keeps as watchman to my heart.

Scientific views end in awe and mystery lost at the edge in uncertainty but they appear to be so deep and so impressive that the theory that it is all arranged as a stage for God to watch man's struggle for good and evil seems inadequate.

The soles of Neil Armstrong's boots on the moon made permanent impressions on our souls and in our national psyche. Ann and I watched those steps together on her parent's sofa. Like all Americans we went to bed that night knowing we lived in the greatest country in the history of the world. God bless Neil Armstrong.

From the solemn gloom of the temple children run out to sit in the dust God watches them play and forgets the priest.
