What is this guy''s problem? Is he a sociopath? With the many wonderful posts praising Paul Newman, this guy has to ruin things. There seems to be a rotten apple in every bunch.

I love your behaviour...

I love your
behaviour, the light
of a blackbird
and a luminous
farm; I listen
to you when
a care disappears
and then, in the
sound of a new
day, a magical
dreamland invites
me to cry....

Rest in Peace, God Bless you Paul Newman. You are sadly missed. There aren''t many others left who are worth much as actors or actesses. He got alot and gave alot. It is the giving that makes the diffence in what type of person you are.

Our prayers are with his family, respect their privacy!

When ever I begin to get depressed or cynical about people and life, I watch "The Verdict" and feel redeemed. To me, it was a reflection of whom Paul Newman really was and a testimony to his belief in people.

I knew that he was a super hero even before I learned that he was the Green Lantern.

MOURNER''S KADDISH
An English Translation

Glorified and sanctified be God''s great name throughout the world which He has created according to His will. May He establish His kingdom in your lifetime and during your days, and within the life of the entire House of Israel, speedily and soon; and say, Amen.

May His great name be blessed forever and to all eternity.

Blessed and praised, glorified and exalted, extolled and honored, adored and lauded be the name of the Holy One, blessed be He, beyond all the blessings and hymns, praises and consolations that are ever spoken in the world; and say, Amen.

May there be abundant peace from heaven, and life, for us
and for all Israel; and say, Amen.

He who creates peace in His celestial heights, may He create peace for us and for all Israel; and say, Amen.

always buy ''''Newmans Own''''. Nothing like giving your profits to charity.

A noble sentiment, but charity shmarity...his products were always superior.

Feeling good about yourself for buying them isn''t too bad either, I guess, so disregard my previous statment (except for the superior products part)

"I''''m not going to bother reading through these comments looking for obnoxious comments about Newman"

I did, and there isn''t a single one.
That''s remarkable in itself.

It''s always nice (and rare) to see someone succeed in life while at the same time sharing his good fortune and expressing empathy for those who didn''t have as much.

Mr. Newman seemed to be one of those rare people.

In a class of his own. If you think about it his life and work overall represents one of the best faces ever put forth by the United States of America.

The nastiest thing I ever heard about Paul Newman was hat to indulge his passion for racing, he had a Porche cleverly hidden under a beat-up VW Beetle chassis and enjoyed blowing the doors off of unsuspecting speeders who thought they were quick on the Connecticut Turnpike.

Is that beautiful or what?

He did a lot of good and left behind a rich legacy of his craft.

Godspeed Paul...I hope I see you around sometime.

Great Actor, Good Man. His type are not being replaced, either in his profession or his ethics.
The real acting glass is continuing to empty and being replaced by an empty void.
Thanks for being here Paul Newman.

Rom 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Matt 7:1-6 Worry about your own sins and shortcomings and quit worrying about your brother''s lest God see you as self-righteous and sanctimonious and reward you with eternal damnation.

Heb 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
