David Carr seemed to embody a growth path as an adult that we all would wish to emulate: humane yet unsentimental, wise yet unpretentious. — Richard Yeselson (@yeselson) February 13, 2015

David Carr was a mountain of a man in toothpick profile. Weird, profane, genius. Smarter than everyone in every room. This is shit. — Joshua Topolsky (@joshuatopolsky) February 13, 2015

Can I be honest? Best part of Carr was seeing him not as a reporter but as a father. — jasoncherkis (@jasoncherkis) February 13, 2015

David was just a lovely, wonderful, generous, caring, decent and human human being. And there are far fewer of those. — Seth Mnookin (@sethmnookin) February 13, 2015

…was the the only thing that truly matters is being a decent human being. Yes, he was a great journalist. But so are lots of people. — Seth Mnookin (@sethmnookin) February 13, 2015

And he was right. He was an inspiration as a father. We learned a lot from each other. But the most valuable thing he taught me… — Seth Mnookin (@sethmnookin) February 13, 2015

The one thing I really know how to do is be a dad. And now all the girls are gone. So what now?” To hear David say that was so beautiful. — Seth Mnookin (@sethmnookin) February 13, 2015

I feel like David and I would make fun of the number of bullshit people tweeting about him right now. He was like family, and I’m crushed. — James Del (@JDel) February 13, 2015
