Famous quotes containing the words speed and/or fry:

    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)

    What after all
    Is a halo? It’s only one more thing to keep clean.
    —Christopher Fry (b. 1907)
