Famous quotes containing the words newspaper and/or work:
“A newspaper is a device for making the ignorant more ignorant and the crazy crazier.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
“The real risks for any artist are taken ... in pushing the work to the limits of what is possible, in the attempt to increase the sum of what it is possible to think. Books become good when they go to this edge and risk falling over it—when they endanger the artist by reason of what he has, or has not, artistically dared.”
—Salman Rushdie (b. 1947)
