Famous quotes containing the words national and/or newspapers:

    The word which gives the key to the national vice is waste. And people who are wasteful are not wise, neither can they remain young and vigorous. In order to transmute energy to higher and more subtle levels one must first conserve it.
    Henry Miller (1891–1980)

    Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
