Fourth Ball

Famous quotes containing the words fourth and/or ball:

    Newsmen believe that news is a tacitly acknowledged fourth branch of the federal system. This is why most news about government sounds as if it were federally mandated—serious, bulky and blandly worthwhile, like a high-fiber diet set in type.
    —P.J. (Patrick Jake)

    When Adam delved and Eve span,
    Who was then the gentleman?
    —John Ball (hanged 1381)
