In my opinion, he was the finest actor of the last half of the twentieth century. He could take on any role and make it his own. That Paul Newman sparkle was evident in whatever part he played, but he became the character he portrayed.   He gave so much more off the screen. He made a difference in this world and used his celebrity for good.

A lifetime of service to others with so many things that he will be remembered for.

Here's just a short quote lifted from the article linked below, it conveys my thoughts better than I can.

Paul Newman's craft was acting. His passion was racing. His love was his family and friends. And his heart and soul were dedicated to helping make the world a better place for all.

Statement from Newman's Own

Sad news. Here's the musical argument for keeping this above the line: He made the song "Plastic Jesus" known to millions in "Cool Hand Luke."
