Famous quotes containing the word news:

    “Though news be sad, yet tell them merrily;

    By playing it to me with so sour a face.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “It is not the purpose of literature to purvey news. For news consult the Almanac de Gotha.”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    “The media transforms the great silence of things into its opposite. Formerly constituting a secret, the real now talks constantly. News reports, information, statistics, and surveys are everywhere.”
    —Michel de Certeau (1925–1986)
