Famous quotes containing the word york:
“As for your friend, my prospective reader, I hope he ignores Fort Sumter, and Old Abe, and all that; for that is just the most fatal, and, indeed, the only fatal weapon you can direct against evil ever; for, as long as you know of it, you are particeps criminis. What business have you, if you are an angel of light, to be pondering over the deeds of darkness, reading the New York Herald, and the like.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“Not even the most powerful organs of the press, including Time, Newsweek, and The New York Times, can discover a new artist or certify his work and make it stick.... They can only bring you the scores.”
—Tom Wolfe (b. 1931)
