    You try to tell me anything about the newspaper business! Sir, I have been through it from Alpha to Omaha, and I tell you that the less a man knows the bigger the noise he makes and the higher the salary he commands.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    Do thou, then breathe those thoughts into my mind
    By which such virtue may in me be bred
    That in thy holy footsteps I may tread:
    The fetters of my tongue do thou unbind,
    That I may have the power to sing of thee
    And sound thy praises everlastingly
    Michelangelo Buonarroti (1474–1564)

    ...a lot of my people are models. I like that for them. I admire models, so I think that’s right for my people. ...I love it when I have an important [client]. And the pictures and awards. One of my clients has these television awards—a beautiful statue of a woman. I think it’s an Emmy. People would be lucky to get one. She has two. I think that’s great.
    Elaine Strong (b. 1934)
