Famous quotes containing the word news:

    I am sure that I never read any memorable news in a newspaper.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    News of battle! News of battle!
    Hark. ‘Tis ringing down the street
    And the archways and the pavement
    Bear the clang of hurrying feet.
    News of battle. Who has brought it?
    William Edmonstoune Aytoun (1813–1865)

    Newsmen believe that news is a tacitly acknowledged fourth branch of the federal system. This is why most news about government sounds as if it were federally mandated—serious, bulky and blandly worthwhile, like a high-fiber diet set in type.
