Press

Famous quotes containing the word press:

    Wit’s forge and fire-blast, meaning’s press and screw.
    Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)

    Our press is certainly bankrupt in the “thrill of awe”Motherwise reverence: reverence for nickel plate and brummagem. Let us sincerely hope that this fact will remain a fact forever; for to my mind a discriminating irreverence is the creator and protector of human liberty.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    The press is, almost without exception, corrupt.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
