 Guardian Unlimited | Obituaries | Obituary: Professor Sir Bernard Williams
Williams was a rivetting party guest, often causing a logjam round the fridge as the entire gathering struggled to get into the kitchen to hear him discussing metaphysics.
Williams pooh-poohed the incessantly-made antithesis between the rigorous analytic and the literary continental styles of philosophising, saying you might as well compare a car with four-wheel drive with a Japanese car (a category confusion of methodology and geography).
Williams is often considered an "anti-theory" philosopher, but paradoxically, while saying that moral philosophy cannot change anything, he showed, by changing the way we do it, that it could.

While Williams is by far the smoother public performer, Martin is no slouch in the political-hardball department, having effectively chased a sitting prime minister — Jean Chretien — from power.
Williams was gambling he could get Martin, weakened by a minority government, to cave quickly to his demands.

By calling Williams on the phone early in the election to make his offer, Martin was signalling that he was prepared to play politics with a key and sensitive player.
Williams was left brooding all alone in an Ottawa hotel room waiting for a phone call from Martin that did not come.
Williams is a rough man, not a smooth man. The high ground may therefore wind up with Martin.

I would encourage Danny Williams to stand strong so that Newfoundland is treated with respect and dignity as a province and a people so that the resources of that province will benefit the people and the province and not everyone else which has been the pattern in the past.
Watching and listening to Danny Williams struck a chord within me. It was a familiar feeling, one I am sure reverberates within most Newfoundlanders when they witness one of their own standing up to the powers that be.

 Vitali Klitschko Meets Williams (phillyBurbs.com) | Boxing
Williams was plucked from obscurity to be Tyson's comeback opponent in July, then shocked everyone by weathering a storm from Tyson and coming back to knock him out in the fourth round.
Williams (32-3, 27 knockouts) has watched tapes of that fight and knows he must find a way to get inside and take the fight to a heavyweight who still carries the unorthodox Eastern European style he grew up with in Ukraine.
Williams took everything Tyson had for the first two rounds without going down, then had enough left to finish off the former heavyweight champion.

 Saving People and Seals: Renewed Call for A New "Made in Canada" Approach Says The Humane Society of Canada ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
The Humane Society of Canada is once again calling on Premier Danny Williams of Newfoundland and Labrador, to work towards a new "made in Canada" solution to try and hammer out a deal that tries to take all interests into account.
In a series of open letters found here to Premier Danny Williams of Newfoundland and Labrador, The Humane Society of Canada has asked him to consider a new approach: "…For decades, the people of Canada have helped the people of Newfoundland and Labrador, and asked for very little in return.
Any politician or economist advocating a strong, diversified economic base built upon a strategy of shifting commercial exploitation from one species to the next is engaging in an exercise doomed to failure," he says.

Danny Williams had good reason to contemplate the skewed wisdom of those words last summer.
The night before the meeting Danny Williams received a fax from federal Finance Minister Ralph Goodale offering a very different deal from the one he thought he had sewn up, a deal with both a financial cap and an eight-year time limit.
The rhetoric heated up: Martin stated that Williams had agreed to the proposed changes in the agreement during private phone calls, a claim flatly denied by Williams, who held a news conference where he presented evidence in the form of the one-way correspondence between his government and the Prime Minister.

Danny Williams thinks its good news that Abitibi Consolidated is selling off its interest in an Asian paper making operation.
Abitibi isn't run by that hideous breed of politician who will say anything to get a good poll, knowing full well he or she may make a totally different decision when required.
What he says and what actually is likely to happen may not always be in the same species, let alone the same thing.

Their premiere, Danny Williams, is tacitly encouraging his constituents to do likewise.
That's right, you heard me. Danny Williams reacted to bad negotiating tactics by banishing not just the federal government, but the symbol of the Canadian people from his sight.
I am not saying that Williams isn't justified in his anger (although John Hamm seemed to think that progress was made in the talks), but to react this way is just plain wrong.

Although Klitschko is preparing to defend his title for the first time against Mike Tyson-conqueror Danny Williams on Saturday night (9 ET, HBO PPV, $49.95) at Mandalay Bay, he admits that many of his thoughts are thousands of miles away in his Ukrainian homeland.
The key difference between the Williams who looked like he was going nowhere and the one who knocked out Mike Tyson six months ago was Williams' ability to control his emotions.
As recently as January, when he lost his British title to Michael Sprott, Williams was so consumed by the pressure of the moment that he would cry in his dressing room before walking to the ring.

Danny Williams is the best leader we have ever had and only wants what is good for Newfoundland.
Could it be, as someone has already suggested, that it is the credibility of Danny Williams that is seen as such a threat to their political aspirations that it must be attacked from every quarter, even if that means shading the truth a little, or is it just a personal thing, Mr.
Williams rather than trying to smear me. Personally I don’t think it is a matter of his credibility at all.

In April, some sixteen thousand NAPE members spent twenty-eight days on the picket line to prevent their employer, the Danny Williams' government, from stripping their contracts.
Without the premier's cowardly threat to fire members who didn't go back to work, a threat as much to your families and to your children as it was a threat to you, you would have stood in solidarity in defiance of the back-to-work legislation.
Danny Williams will think twice before he picks on you again.

By evil manipulations between Canada’s Feudal Government, the conniving Quebec separatists, and the “not so bright” politician great amounts of electric power were generated from Labrador and given to Quebec to supply their industries and sell the excess to the United States.
The greedy bureaucrats and politicians in Ottawa led by the most mercenary and despised ruffian of all, Emperor and Supreme Sorcerer Paul Martin cried “this is great, we will steal all the monies from Newfoundland and return to them only a mere pittance.
But Danny Williams, like the Robin of olden tymes, stood up to the Supreme Sorcerer and demanded that this election promise be kept.
