Famous quotes containing the words spoken, word and/or columns:
“The Poor Man whom everyone speaks of, the Poor Man whom everyone pities, one of the repulsive Poor from whom “charitable” souls keep their distance, he has still said nothing. Or, rather, he has spoken through the voice of Victor Hugo, Zola, Richepin. At least, they said so. And these shameful impostures fed their authors. Cruel irony, the Poor Man tormented with hunger feeds those who plead his case.”
—Albert Camus (1913–1960)
“The right word may be effective, but no word was ever as effective as a rightly timed pause.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“Rage is the only quality which has kept me, or anybody I have ever studied, writing columns for newspapers.”
—Jimmy Breslin (b. 1929)
