Famous quotes containing the words city, news and/or comedian:

    “The surprise of animals... in and out, cats and dogs and a milk goat and chickens and guinea hens, all taken for granted, as if man was intended to live on terms of friendly intercourse with the rest of creation instead of huddling in isolation on the fourteenth floor of an apartment house in a city where animals occurred behind bars in the zoo.”
    —Elizabeth Janeway (b. 1913)

    “I wouldn’t interfere with the actual news itself, but TV is show biz, Max, and even the news has to have a little showmanship.”
    —Paddy Chayefsky (1923–1981)

    “The test of a real comedian is whether you laugh at him before he opens his mouth.”
