Famous quotes containing the word columns:

    We are a race of tit-men, and soar but little higher in our intellectual flights than the columns of the daily paper.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Rage is the only quality which has kept me, or anybody I have ever studied, writing columns for newspapers.
    Jimmy Breslin (b. 1929)

    The newspapers, I perceive, devote some of their columns specially to politics or government without charge; and this, one would say, is all that saves it; but as I love literature and to some extent the truth also, I never read those columns at any rate. I do not wish to blunt my sense of right so much.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
