Famous quotes containing the words sky, news and/or radio:

    The sky is low, the clouds are mean,
    Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

    I see now that we store him up
    year after year, old suicides
    and I know at the news of your death,
    a terrible taste for it, like salt.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    Local television shows do not, in general, supply make-up artists. The exception to this is Los Angeles, an unusually generous city in this regard, since they also provide this service for radio appearances.
    Fran Lebowitz (b. 1950)
