Famous quotes containing the words guest and/or editors:

    “When mother’s relatives visited,
    delicacies were cooked.
    When father’s guest arrrived,
    mother swelled and had a fit.”
    —Punjabi proverb, trans. by Gurinder Singh Mann.

    “The trenchant editorials plus the keen rivalry natural to extremely partisan papers made it necessary for the editors to be expert pugilists and duelists as well as journalists. An editor made no assertion that he could not defend with fists or firearms.”
    —Federal Writers’ Project Of The Wor, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
