Famous quotes containing the words garrison and/or radio:

    Our country is the world—our countrymen are all mankind.
    —William Lloyd Garrison (1805–1879)

    There was a girl who was running the traffic desk, and there was a woman who was on the overnight for radio as a producer, and my desk assistant was a woman. So when the world came to an end, we took over.
    Marya McLaughlin, U.S. television newswoman. As quoted in Women in Television News, ch. 3, by Judith S. Gelfman (1976)
