Famous quotes containing the word news:

    “Though news be sad, yet tell them merrily;
    If good, thou shamest the music of sweet news
    By playing it to me with so sour a face.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “The media transforms the great silence of things into its opposite. Formerly constituting a secret, the real now talks constantly. News reports, information, statistics, and surveys are everywhere.”
    —Michel de Certeau (1925–1986)

    “The news we hear, for the most part, is not news to our genius. It is the stalest repetition.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
