People Press

Famous quotes containing the words people and/or press:

    The people themselves, and not their servants, can safely reverse their own deliberate decisions.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    If behind the erratic gunfire of the press the author felt that there was another kind of criticism, the opinion of people reading for the love of reading, slowly and unprofessionally, and judging with great sympathy and yet with great severity, might this not improve the quality of his work? And if by our means books were to become stronger, richer, and more varied, that would be an end worth reaching.
    Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)
