Famous quotes containing the words table and/or contents:

    I talk with the authority of failure—Ernest with the authority of success. We could never sit across the same table again.
    F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)

    If one reads a newspaper only for information, one does not learn the truth, not even the truth about the paper. The truth is that the newspaper is not a statement of contents but the contents themselves; and more than that, it is an instigator.
    Karl Kraus (1874–1936)
