Famous quotes containing the word news:

    It is not the purpose of literature to purvey news. For news consult the Almanac de Gotha.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    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)

    Though news be sad, yet tell them merrily;
    If good, thou shamest the music of sweet news
    By playing it to me with so sour a face.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
