Read Word

Famous quotes containing the words read and/or word:

“The newspaper is a Bible which we read every morning and every afternoon, standing and sitting, riding and walking. It is a Bible which every man carries in his pocket, which lies on every table and counter, and which the mail, and thousands of missionaries, are continually dispersing. It is, in short, the only book which America has printed, and which America reads. So wide is its influence.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“I pray for fashion’s word is out
And prayer comes round again
That I may seem, though I die old,
A foolish, passionate man.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
