Ten Late News

Famous quotes containing the words ten, late and/or news:

    One person tells an idle story; ten thousand repeat it as truth.
    Chinese proverb.

    ... asks what it’s too late to ask:
    “Where is my life? Where is my life?
    What have I done with my life?”
    Denise Levertov (b. 1923)

    The conflict between the men who make and the men who report the news is as old as time. News may be true, but it is not truth, and reporters and officials seldom see it the same way.... In the old days, the reporters or couriers of bad news were often put to the gallows; now they are given the Pulitzer Prize, but the conflict goes on.
    James Reston (b. 1909)
