“In really hard times the rules of the game are altered. The inchoate mass begins to stir. It becomes potent, and when it strikes,... it strikes with incredible emphasis.

—Walter Lippmann (1889–1974)

—Donald Hall (b. 1928)
“Good news about someone never gets past the door, but bad news will travel a thousand leagues away.”
