Famous quotes containing the word events:

    “There are events which are so great that if a writer has participated in them his obligation is to write truly rather than assume the presumption of altering them with invention.”
    —Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)

    “Reporters are not paid to operate in retrospect. Because when news begins to solidify into current events and finally harden into history, it is the stories we didn’t write, the questions we didn’t ask that prove far, far more damaging than the ones we did.”
    —Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)

    “Since events are not metaphors, the literal-minded have a certain advantage in dealing with them.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
