Water Speed

Famous quotes containing the words water and/or speed:

“‘Tis not enough on roots and in the mouth,

In all the passion of a broken drouth.”

“The greatest felony in the news business today is to be behind, or to miss a big story. So speed and quantity substitute for thoroughness and quality, for accuracy and context. The pressure to compete, the fear somebody else will make the splash first, creates a frenzied environment in which a blizzard of information is presented and serious questions may not be raised.”
—Carl Bernstein (b. 1944)
