The difference between literature and journalism is that journalism is unreadable and literature is not read Picture Quote #1

Today is the anniversary of the Gettysburg Address. President Lincoln wrote it on his way to the site of the speech on the back of an envelope. One guy on the back of an envelope wrote the great Gettysburg Address - while every night it takes six guys to write this crap! Picture Quote #1
