Quotations regarding 'Newspapers'
Some newspapers are fit only to line the bottom of bird cages.
Spiro T. Agnew, American Politician (1918-1996)
I suppose I will go on selling newspapers until at last will come the late night final.
William Maxwell Aitken, Canadian Businessman (1879-1964)
Have you noticed that life, with murders and catastrophes and fabulous inheritances, happens almost exclusively in newspapers?
Jean Anouilh, French Playwright (1910-1987)
I think the people will- who advocate having a step back and read those public opinion polls on the front page of the newspapers all over this country saying public supports restoration in restoration of the Everglades, protection of the parks and the creation of monuments.
Bruce Babbitt, American Politician (1938- )
There should be a background check every time a firearm is transferred. You shouldn't be able to go to a gun show and buy guns without a background check. There are Internet gun sales, classified ads in the newspapers - and you can buy guns without background checks.
Michael D. Barnes, American Politician (1943- )
So here, at Arsenal, we are often surprised when we are shown some of the newspapers, and at the bottom of an article there is a line saying if you know of anyone who had an affair with a player, call this number. It is very strange to us.
Dennis Bergkamp, Dutch Athlete (1969- )
I read the newspapers avidly. It is my one form of continuous fiction.
Aneurin Bevan, Welsh Politician (1897-1960)
In revealing the workings of government that led to the Vietnam War, the newspapers nobly did precisely that which the Founders hoped and trusted they would do.
Hugo Black, American Judge (1886-1971)
In my view, far from deserving condemnation for their courageous reporting, the New York Times, the Washington Post and other newspapers should be commended for serving the purpose that the Founding Fathers saw so clearly.
Hugo Black, American Judge (1886-1971)
Four hostile newspapers are more to be feared than a thousand bayonets.
Napoleon Bonaparte, French Leader (1769-1821)
Information on the Internet must be as free as in the newspapers.
Omar Bongo, Statesman (1935- )
Rage is the only quality which has kept me, or anybody I have ever studied, writing columns for newspapers.
Jimmy Breslin, American Entertainer (1930- )
I busted out of the place in a hurry and went to a saloon and drank beer and said that for the rest of my life I'd never take a job in a place where you couldn't throw cigarette butts on the floor. I was hooked on this writing for newspapers and magazines.
Jimmy Breslin, American Entertainer (1930- )
The American mind, unlike the English, is not formed by books, but, as Carl Sandburg once said to me... by newspapers and the Bible.
Van Wyck Brooks, American Critic (1886-1963)
The votes of 60,000 Floridians were not counted. The Court threw out all 60,00 votes. And that's what the newspapers around the country are counting now.
Vincent Bugliosi, American Author (1934- )
Frankly, despite my horror of the press, I'd love to rise from the grave every ten years or so and go buy a few newspapers.
Luis Bunuel, Mexican Director (1900-1983)
The mass media in the days of newspapers and television it's hard to be able to find a story that's about just what you're interested in at the time you're interested in it.
Guy Burgess, British Criminal (1911-1963)
I was on the cover of a lot of newspapers. I was on the cover of USA Today for every single day for a month. I was on the masthead, so I tend to get recognized a lot, and in weird places. It's always flattering, and it's always odd. It's always at the worst possible time.
Augusten Burroughs, American Writer (1965- )
They pulled Resurrection out of the theatres, so it was running in New York and I was nominated for the Oscar and there was no ad in the newspapers to say it was running. So it was literally killed.
Ellen Burstyn, American Actress (1932- )
We always get up about 5:30, and George gets up and goes in and gets the coffee and brings it to me, and that's been our ritual since we got married. And we read the newspapers in bed and drink coffee for about an hour probably, read our briefing papers.
Laura Bush, American First Lady (1946- )
