Famous quotes containing the words latent and/or news:

    In history an additional result is commonly produced by human actions beyond that which they aim at and obtain—that which they immediately recognize and desire. They gratify their own interest; but something further is thereby accomplished, latent in the actions in question, though not present to their consciousness, and not included in their design.
    Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)

    I have a piece of great and sad news to tell you: I am dead.
    Jean Cocteau (1889–1963)
