Famous quotes containing the words national and/or newspapers:
“In my public statements I have earnestly urged that there rested upon government many responsibilities which affect the moral and spiritual welfare of our people.

Moreover, it is through them that our national ideals are ingrained in our children.”

“If words were invented to conceal thought, I think that newspapers are a great improvement on a bad invention.”
