Newspaper Quotes

A newspaper has three things to do. One is to amuse, another is to entertain and the rest is to mislead Picture Quote #1

Fifteen minutes of fame doesn’t make a career. An article in a magazine, newspaper, interview on television or multiple print ads may stroke your ego, but nothing much else. An artist’s career is a lifetime venture. Just because an artist is on top doesn’t mean they are sheltered from a crash. As has been stated, the higher you climb, the harder you fall Picture Quote #1

Unlucky people miss chance opportunities because they are too focused on looking for something else. They go to parties intent on finding their perfect partner, and so miss opportunities to make good friends. They look through the newspaper determined to find certain job advertisements and, as a result, miss other types of jobs. Lucky people are more relaxed and open, and therefore see what is there, rather than just what they are looking for Picture Quote #1

A newspaper is a private enterprise owing nothing whatsoever to the public, which grants it no franchise. It is therefore affected with no public interest Picture Quote #1

In my perfect world order, it is cold all the time. Everyone wears sweaters and drinks coffee. People don’t speak to each other; they read the newspaper. There is no loud music, and cats are in charge Picture Quote #1

If you don’t hit a newspaper reader between the eyes with your first sentence, there is no need of writing a second one Picture Quote #1

A newspaper is a mirror reflecting the public, a mirror more or less defective, but still a mirror Picture Quote #1

She died with a knife in her hand in her kitchen, where she had cooked for fifty years, and the death was solemnly listed in the newspaper as that of an artist Picture Quote #1

I never look at the newspaper in the morning. That’s the worst thing you can do with your brain Picture Quote #1

There’s not much a newspaper reporter can do about dead men. But a newspaper reporter and a cop and a judge can deliver some justice. That’s why the founding fathers wrote it up the way they did, I suppose. Life. Liberty. Pursuit of happiness. Everyone is entitled to those things Picture Quote #1

I’d worked at a small town newspaper, and I was thinking of all the strange stories that I had seen float through the newsroom in my time there that were dismissed as kind of amusing curiosities. Somehow from that I got to this idea of an eccentric alcoholic who built a lighthouse in the woods Picture Quote #1

I know so many acting careers that are deliberately kickstarted by a publicist placing a bit of rubbish in a newspaper. And I don’t want that. If someone recognises me, I want it to be because they’ve seen me in something, not because they have seen me at something Picture Quote #1

The whole problem with news on television comes down to this: all the words uttered in an hour of news coverage could be printed on a page of a newspaper. And the world cannot be understood in one page Picture Quote #1

Reading the morning newspaper is the realist’s morning. One orients one’s attitude toward the either by or by what the world is. The former gives as much security as the latter, in that one knows how one stands Picture Quote #1

It wouldn’t kill you to watch a film or pick up a newspaper once in a while Picture Quote #1

Hollywood is right. A good and strong movie can have a more powerful social impact than any and all political speeches or newspaper editorials and columns Picture Quote #1

Wherever a story comes from, whether it is a familiar myth or a private memory, the retelling exemplifies the making of a connection from one pattern to another: a potential translation in which narrative becomes parable and the once upon a time comes to stand for some renascent truth. This approach applies to all the incidents of everyday life: the phrase in the newspaper, the endearing or infuriating game of a toddler, the misunderstanding at the office. Our species thinks in metaphors and learns through stories Picture Quote #1

My grandfather had been a newspaper reporter, as was my uncle. They were pretty good writers and so I thought maybe somewhere down the line I would do some writing Picture Quote #1

Being able to provoke a different point of view to the standard current ideological or political perspective as played out in conventional newspaper or radio reportage is what a public intellectual does. But it’s not merely about being oppositional, because that’s too negative Picture Quote #1

I would like to see every newspaper and every magazine have a network of bureaus all over the world, gathering news Picture Quote #1

Once in 1919, when I was traveling at night by train, I wrote a short story. In the town where the train stopped, I took the story to the publisher of the newspaper who published the story Picture Quote #1

I don’t think there’s a difference between writing for a newspaper or magazine and doing a chapter in a book Picture Quote #1

I believe in breakfast. It’s the one meal that my kids usually eat without a fuss, so that’s huge. As for myself, I can’t function without it, and I see it as a great way to get some healthy greens in, some coffee, and on a good day, maybe even some news of the world via the newspaper Picture Quote #1

I guess you’re happy if you have some kind of balance in you. I’m a human being. I have days when I feel paralyzed, days when I feel like a slug. Then I have days when I have good energy, I’ve read the newspaper and I’ve done different things Picture Quote #1

While editors and newspaper owners currently fret over shrinking readership and lost profits, they do the one thing that insures cutting their own throats; they keep reducing space for the one feature that attracts new young readers in the first place; the comic strips Picture Quote #1

I believe that a newspaper is a great civic asset and that ownership is best in the hands of foundations or wealthy families that want to own it for reasons other than maximizing profits. I also believe newspapers should remain in local hands Picture Quote #1

A good column is one that sells paper. It doesn’t matter how beautifully it is written and how much you admire the author... if it doesn’t sell any papers, it’s not a good column. It’s a terrible yardstick to use, but in the newspaper business, that’s the whole thing Picture Quote #1

I began after college, about 1972. I began to teach myself photography. I went to work for a local newspaper for four years as a kind of basic training Picture Quote #1

I wrote my first short story for a competition and won second prize. Another competition came up and I won first prize. The first story was published in a newspaper. The second went out on radio Picture Quote #1

Throughout the day remind yourself that you are moving through eternity. Be focused. Be centered. Be in the now. Know what is going on in the world. Read a newspaper once in a while Picture Quote #1
