Famous quotes containing the words james and/or media:

    Knowledge about life is one thing; effective occupation of a place in life, with its dynamic currents passing through your being, is another.

    Today the discredit of words is very great. Most of the time the media transmit lies. In the face of an intolerable world, words appear to change very little. State power has become congenitally deaf, which is why—but the editorialists forget it—terrorists are reduced to bombs and hijacking.
    John Berger (b. 1926)
