Famous quotes containing the words media and/or work:

    “Today the discredit of words is very great. Most of the time the media transmit lies. In the face of an intolerable world, words appear to change very little. State power has become congenitally deaf, which is why—but the editorialists forget it—terrorists are reduced to bombs and hijacking.”
    —John Berger (b. 1926)

    “A work of art is an echo chamber which repeats what people say about it.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
