Here, we’ve compiled a list of the best Newspapers Quotes from famous persons: Ian Mcewan, Antonio Tabucchi, Paul Cellucci, Elayne Boosler, Federica Mogherini. The wide variety of quotes available makes it possible to find a quote to suit your needs. You’ve likely heard some of the Newspapers Quotes before, but that’s because they truly are great.
1
When I began I thought that literature was contained within a bubble that somehow floated above the world commented upon by newspapers. But I became more and more interested in trying to include some of that world within my work.
2
When you have a foreign invasion – in this case by the Indonesian army – writers, intellectuals, newspapers and magazines are the first targets of repression.

I’ve thought for the last decade or so, the only actual place raw truth was seeping through in newspapers was on the Comics Pages. They were able to pull off intelligent social comment, pure truths not found elsewhere in the news pages, and had the ability to make it all funny, entertaining, and pertinent.

Information on the Internet must be as free as in the newspapers.

Don’t worry over what the newspapers say. I don’t. Why should anyone else? I told the truth to the newspaper correspondents – but when you tell the truth to them they are at sea.
15
Newspapers that are truly independent, like The Washington Post, can still aggressively investigate anyone or anything with no holds barred.
16
I think most things I read on the Internet and in newspapers are propaganda. Everyone from the ‘New York Times‘ to Rupert Murdoch has a point of view and is putting forth their own propaganda. They’re stuck with the facts as they are, but the way they interpret and frame them is wildly different.
17
To newspapers and publishing houses I urge the use of fact over fiction, freedom of the press, and responsibility at all times.

Mum was a high-jumper and qualified to go to the Olympics, but it got into the newspapers that she was married to my father, and the church put pressure on her to pull out of the Olympic team, saying, ‘You can’t be exposing all your legs.’ That’s how strong the influence of the church was on us all.
26
27
I absolutely want and prize and love and revere every single media review I get, but if I got 50 reviews from major newspapers and one review from Amazon, I still would feel a little weird: ‘What’s going on? Why aren’t people responding?’
28

31
I get newspapers from Britain and other countries twice a week and read them almost page to page. Sometimes I find I’m reading things I don’t even need to read, because my mind is still hungry.
32
When you think about advertising, it’s understanding that whether it’s newspaper, radio, or television, you have to know how to advertise, how to market, because ultimately, everything comes down to ratings and revenue or ratings and subscribers and revenue, whether it’s newspapers or radio or television.
33
After starting as a journalist for newspapers and magazines, I began to write books and had success with a novel and four nonfiction books for young adults.
34

38
At last, the newspapers discovered the Bears. I kept writing articles about upcoming games, and by reading the papers, I learned editors like superlatives. I blush when I think how many times I wrote that the next game was going to be the most difficult of the season or how a new player was the fastest man in the West.

42
When you meet powerful men or just read about them in the newspapers, you see that they don’t have a sense of boundaries.
43
44
45
There was a really long period of time when, if the newspapers ever referred to me, even if I was talking about, I don’t know, cake making, they would put ‘lesbian Sandi Toksvig.’
46
I respect newspapers, but the reality is that magazine ‘photojournalism’ is finished. They want illustrations, Photoshopped pictures of movie stars.
47
48
I buy newspapers to make money to buy more newspapers to make more money.
49

51
I used to get these reviews in American newspapers saying that they didn’t understand what my lyrics were about. I saw that as a compliment. That’s exactly what English songwriters should be doing!
52
53
54
If political cartoonists continue to rely on newspapers, we may be in serious trouble. It’s a very transferable form of journalism, though – it works great on Web sites.
55
There were always plenty of newspapers in the house. ‘The Times’, ‘Guardian’, ‘Daily Telegraph‘ and ‘Daily Mail’ were all regular fixtures on the coffee table. I used to enjoy reading ‘The Times’ editorial pages and the ‘Daily Mail’ sports pages.
56
57
The journalists have obviously failed to capture my innate magnetism, humour and charisma, and they all need to be fired from their newspapers right away.
58
59
I coauthored my first nonfiction book by the time I was 25. I have been involved in nonfiction documentaries, newspapers, TV and internet since that time.
60
61
I am uninterested in appearing in newspapers and on television. Many people think I am striking a pose – that I want to create a sense of shyness. But it’s just not something I want to do. I overdosed.
62
I’ve never canceled a subscription to a newspaper because of bad cartoons or editorials. If that were the case, I wouldn’t have any newspapers or magazines to read.
63
Film is one small voice in a great cacophony of noise from newspapers, from the television, from social media, so it can have a little dent, you know? It can help to create a climate of opinion.

I wasn’t one of those kids who grew up wanting to write or who read a particular book and thought: ‘I want to do that!’ I always told stories and wrote them down, but I never thought writing was a career path, even though, clearly, someone was writing the books and newspapers and magazines.
70
In America, there’s a very long tradition of a comic strip that comes in newspapers, which is not true all over the world. To sell papers, they put color comics in.
71
I’m naturally curious, and I read four newspapers a day.
72
Newspapers are not free and they never have been. They can appear to be so, but someone, somewhere is covering the costs whether that is through advertising, a patron‘s largesse or a license fee. Advertising is no longer subsidising the industry and so the cost must fall somewhere – why not on the people who use it?
73
If you look at the history of how information flows, there was a time that newspapers were kind of in the place that Google and Facebook are now – how do we get more people to buy a copy? Then there was a shift in the early 20th century. They needed to do better, and readers and consumers demanded that of them.
74
I’ve thought for years that newspapers should all be owned by nonprofits.
75
There are plenty of paths to becoming a writer, but I think the most reliable ones involve total commitment: writing for magazines and newspapers, teaching writing, editing books, representing authors.
76
77
78
I’ve been getting pulled from newspapers for my entire career.
79
80
81
I don’t really read a lot of newspapers. I don’t pay attention to what is being said or written about me. I’ve had lots of experiences in the past when I got too much into it. That sort of diverts your focus.
82
83
84
85
As editor-in-chief of the ‘Guardian’ and the ‘Observer‘, my job is to ensure that our independent journalism continues to be enjoyed by as many readers as possible and that our print newspapers make a positive financial contribution to securing a sustainable future.
86
87
Americans have this patrician attitude that they have a God-given right to produce these boring newspapers and not be challenged to do it. ‘The New York Times’ really thinks it’s the BBC.
88
People are hysterical about the death of newspapers, and I would say, ‘They’re not dying; they’re just kind of reinventing themselves.’
89
90
Some writers like to boil down headlines of liberal newspapers into fiction, so they say there shouldn’t be communal riots, everybody should love each other, there shouldn’t be boundaries or fundamentalism. But I think literature is more than that; these are political views which most of us hold anyway.
91
My mom would keep all kinds of materials in her classroom for children for reading. She kept comic books, newspapers, sports magazines, and books of all kinds.
92
93
Every day I tell myself that reading newspapers is a waste of time, but then… I cannot do without them. They are like a drug.
94
95
I have a fascination with the nasty things people do to each other and the way relationships go wrong, and how there can be this very dark underbelly to seemingly normal, mundane domestic life. They’re the stories in the newspapers I always find interesting. That’s not a very nice thing to admit to, is it?
96
Umm, I used to stink-bomb peoples’ letterboxes on the weekends when their newspapers were delivered.
97
If I can do something in less than one minute, I don’t let myself procrastinate. I hang up my coat, put newspapers in the recycling, scan and toss a letter. Ever since I wrote about this rule in ‘The Happiness Project,’ I’ve been amazed by how many people have told me that it has made a huge difference in their lives.
98
99
100
The question I ask myself is what would have happened if newspapers hadn’t initially given their content away for free on the Internet. It’s so hard to get people to pay once they are accustomed to having something for free.
101
102
I’ve operated and launched newspapers all over the world.
103
104
105
People say the comedy is so shocking, but if you read newspapers or look around generally – I mean, obviously I’m not writing about all the lovely things that there are, which I do see as well – but there is a lot of outrageousness around, slightly covered up. And obviously, it’s fun to take that a little bit further.
106
I enjoyed having a reputation as being wild, but these days I try not to worry about what people think in the privacy of their own brain or what they write in the bizarre publicity of their own newspapers, because all of those things are meaningless.
107
The student newspapers are as important to me as the ‘New York Times.’
108
The one good thing about television is the money; you can make a lot more money than in newspapers.
109
110
111
I’ve been in the newspapers since I was about 15 – not for rapping, but for real substantive stuff I was doing in the community, organizing around gang violence in the schools. So I had already made my grandma proud before I was on TV. I’ve always been who I am.
112
From the beginning on, newspapers have prospered for one reason: giving readers the news that they want.
113
114
115
116
117
I was on the cover of a lot of newspapers. I was on the cover of USA Today for every single day for a month. I was on the masthead, so I tend to get recognized a lot, and in weird places. It’s always flattering, and it’s always odd. It’s always at the worst possible time.
118
My father was born in the year 1900 in South Carolina, and he grew up at a time where being an African-American child in the American South was to be deprived of access to anything close to a reasonable education. He only had three years of formal education, but he was self-taught. He read two newspapers a day.
119
Nowadays I’m not even sure if newspapers take into account whether a person is a good writer.
120
The public’s appetite for what sensible newspapers call ‘personality journalism’ and what I call gossip is insatiable. It will never, ever stop growing because everybody dreams.
121
I can’t comment on every article in the newspapers.
122
The newspapers turn a blind eye to how they get their material as long as they have great photographs.
123
The genius of the United States is not best or most in its executives or legislatures, nor in its ambassadors or authors or colleges, or churches, or parlors, nor even in its newspapers or inventors, but always most in the common people.
124
Look, I don’t want to edit the ‘Scotsman.’ I have too many other things going on. I have four newspapers to run and two dot com companies going gangbusters.
125
Fans are always asking me where I get my ideas from. The answer is that I’m very curious, and I get inspiration from everywhere. I read the newspapers voraciously, so I know what’s going on in real crime. I pay attention to the strange stories people tell me, and I also read a lot of scientific and forensic journals.
126
Politics is there the way men and women are there, the way the Atlantic Ocean is there. Sometimes I’ve written about politics specifically, I mean about politics as it’s understood on television and in newspapers.
127
128
Newspapers are the engines that drive the Web.
129
130
131
I’ve been drawing authors and politicians for newspapers for many years. I try to read up on the person; in the case of authors, read one of their books. I watch interviews via YouTube and collect pictures via the Internet.
132
133
I am a political junkie. During a presidential campaign, I will often buy a couple of newspapers a day just to keep up.
134
135
I think newspapers shouldn’t try to compete directly with the Web, and should do what they can do better, which may be long-form journalism and using photos and art, and making connections with large-form graphics and really enhancing the tactile experience of paper.
136
Since news breaks on digg very quickly, we face the same issues as newspapers which print a retraction for a story that was misreported. The difference with digg is that equal play can be given to both sides of a story, whereas with a newspaper, a retraction or correction is usually buried.
137
A lot of stories that have fascinated me are tabloid stories that have come from other newspapers, like ‘The New York Times.’
138
139
140
People can say: Okay, it’s not the old-fashioned traditional journalism that took place in the ‘Houston Chronicle‘ in 1975 – it’s different. But that’s also why newspapers are having a hard time staying relevant, you know?
141
The newspapers of the twenty-first century will give a mere ‘stick‘ in the back pages to accounts of crime or political controversies, but will headline on the front pages the proclamation of a new scientific hypothesis.
142
Newspapers are busily experimenting with different models. Traditionally, and I suspect in hindsight very mistakenly, online news was free. And once given free access readers felt it was their entitlement.
143
144
Even the alternative weekly newspapers, traditionally a bastion of progressive thought and analysis, have been bought by a monopoly franchise and made a predictable shift to the right in their coverage of local news.
145
I grew up in a very British family who had been transplanted to Canada, and my grandmother‘s house was filled with English books. I was a very early reader, so I was really brought up being surrounded with piles of British books and British newspapers, British magazines. I developed a really great love of England.
146
147
I would have a poet able bodied, fond of talking, a reader of the newspapers, capable of pity and laughter, informed in economics, appreciative of women, involved in personal relationships, actively interested in politics, susceptible to physical impressions.
148
My reputation was a bit exaggerated. Things were written in newspapers, then copied, then doubled. One of the reasons why I never disclaimed that, was because I found it amusing. But I also constructed such an image for myself in order to gain more of a private life.
149
150
151
It was very hard when the newspapers were chasing me. It was also very weird. I know I’d just become world champion but shouldn’t they be following someone who has done something wrong?
152
153
It’s not the first time that I speak with American journalists. I’ve had meetings with many different newspapers and stations, and I’ve ha – never had a problem with meeting with American journalists.
154
155
Australia is a huge rest home, where no unwelcome news is ever wafted on to the pages of the worst newspapers in the world.
156
People everywhere confuse what they read in newspapers with news.
157
One of the things that I have my students do is to take a look at English-language newspapers from all around the world in order to see the different ways in which the same story might be told.
158
159
160
161
If you look at the newspapers here – the Washington papers – most of the discussion deals with campaign gossip.
162
I just have friends that don’t sell their pictures to newspapers.
163
164
165
None of the established museums were treating cartoons seriously. It was considered a lesser art or no art at all, just a way to sell newspapers. Even the syndicates who were dedicated to the cartoons were throwing them out, figuring they had no value after they were printed.
166
167
Some newspapers have a hands-off policy on favored politicians. But it’s generally very small newspapers or local TV stations.
168
For heaven‘s sakes, in the newspaper days, when we had competing newspapers, and the newsstands sale was as important as the circulation – as the agreed-upon circulation, whatever you call that – in those days, why, gosh, the sensationalism was tremendous.
169
There was no doubt that in the early and mid-eighties that many of us in broadsheet newspapers felt that we still had a responsibility to try to protect the Royal Family or if you like protect the Monarchy from the assaults of the media.
170
171
172
173
I started writing and photographing for different publications and finally ended up being the correspondent in South Asia, for the Geneva-based Journal de Geneve, which at one time used to be one of the best international newspapers in Europe.
174
The largest newspaper in the United States is only reaching 1 percent of population. We are kind of assuming that ‘Wall Street Journal,’ ‘USA Today,’ and other newspapers are very important. Yes, they’re extremely important, but only to 1 percent of the population on a daily basis.
175
176
The digital revolution has disrupted most traditional media: newspapers, magazines, books, record companies, radio.
177
178
The more I watched cable, the more I realized the value of newspapers.
179
180
181
It’s one of the biggest fibs going that American newspapers are now being forced to give up their commitment to investigative reporting. Most of them gave up long ago as their greedy managements squeezed every cent out of the bottom line and turned their newsrooms into eunuchs.
182
In revealing the workings of government that led to the Vietnam War, the newspapers nobly did precisely that which the Founders hoped and trusted they would do.
183
184
In fact, I don’t read newspapers any longer.
185
186
I always got appreciation for the columns I wrote for newspapers.
187
I don’t know what fun newspapers and magazines derive from interfering in people’s private lives.
188
When you’re writing for newspapers you have all these parameters. You can’t swear, you have to use short paragraphs, all that. If you stay within those parameters, you have lots of freedom because you’re writing for the next day.
189
190
Newspapers in this country are famously independent of politics.
191
192
We need to support the media by subscribing to newspapers and magazines and supporting their advertisers to stay in business. And we need to be less greedy and allow journalists to take the time to pull the story together.
193
194
195
It used to be that artists thought of nature as their environment. Now media is our environment. It has been for the past 50, 70 years. It’s what you see on TV, on the computer, what is in the magazines and newspapers.
196
197
198
199
200
The last thing we want is politicians running newspapers, but so too we don’t want newspapers running the government.
201
202
The most important newspapers in this country need to exist. Our democracy needs them. Life as we know it would be unthinkable without them.
203
I hardly ever watch the news… I love reading newspapers, but I know they’re dying out.
204
I think we’ll always have newspapers, but they’ll lose influence.
205
I would like all newspapers to become workers‘ co-operatives.
206
I follow politics very closely. I read several newspapers every day.
207
Governance is complex, difficult, and on the whole, thankless – why ever should the Bright Young Things leave the management of their hotels, newspapers, banks, TV channels and corporations to join, like fleas on a behemoth, the government? Wherein lies the difference between the two worlds?
208
209
210
The newspapers were always against me in the beginning because they thought I was depriving people of what they wanted.
211
I read about eight newspapers in a day. When I’m in a town with only one newspaper, I read it eight times.
212
213
I feel like my competition is everything else that’s competing for people’s attention, not just other print magazines, newspapers and cable. It’s your kid’s report card and the games you want to play, all the things that compete for people’s time.
214
In the end, does it really matter if newspapers physically disappear? Probably not: the world is always changing. But does it matter if organisations independent enough and rich enough to employ journalists to do their job disappear? Yes, that matters hugely; it affects the whole of life and society.
215
Some newspapers are fit only to line the bottom of bird cages.
216
217
218
219
While a lot of my friends were working in Sainsbury’s, I was travelling the world and appearing in newspapers, magazines and attending glamorous photoshoots.
220
221
222
223
I wrote newspaper articles professionally for seven years, and I love newspapers.
224
My life was made easy – I lived in a village, and by writing for some newspapers and magazines, had enough to live on. I was happy to be there and write.
225
The truth is not wonderful enough to suit the newspapers; so they enlarge upon it, and invent ridiculous embellishments.
226
I didn’t work for any newspapers in college, never worked for any newspaper before ‘The Washington Post‘.
227
228
229
I’m old enough to remember the end of World War II. On Aug. 14, 1946, a year after the Japanese were defeated, most newspapers and magazines had single articles commemorating the end of the war.
230
I often feel newspapers are just filling up space. Of course, I also know people who write really long books.
231
Don’t believe everything that you read in the newspapers.
232
My grandfather was a persuasive man who made friends with people at every level of influence. In order to fight against our tribe‘s termination, he went to newspapers and politicians and urged them to advocate for our tribe in Washington. He also supported his family through the Depression as a truck farmer.
233
234
I read the newspapers avidly. It is my one form of continuous fiction.
235
236
Everything I do lands in the newspapers.
237
I have always had a long term view on records as I want them to be books and not magazines and newspapers that you discard very quickly.
238
My dad grew up with straight-up no running water. He slept in a twin bed with his two sisters and his mom, like ‘Charlie And The Chocolate Factory’ style: like, feet at the head, feet at the head alternating. And then I think his dad slept on, like, a bed of newspapers on a floor in their apartment.
239
The newspaper is dying. I’m not sure there will be newspapers and its one business I’d never be in.
240
I do not read newspapers. I do not take any information which I don’t want to take. I make sure I keep my composure.
241
242
I come from a big family of hairdressers; they didn’t read newspapers. I would say, ‘I’m off to Afghanistan…’ and they would say, ‘Have fun!’
243
244
245
I still have the newspapers of my first match at Barcelona. It was a disaster. We lost 2-0 and everybody was questioning my arrival.
246
I went to work. That was a turning point. When you have to do eight shows a week and your name is on the marquee, no matter what is going on at home or what’s on the cover of the newspapers, you’ve got to do your job.
247
248
249
Newspapers write ringing editorials declaring that this is and always was a democracy.
250
The truth is that very few newspapers in the country are willing to do a fair and impartial investigation into the shenanigans of industrialists, politicians or government.
251
I have opened newspapers and read incredible lies.
252
253
254
I flinch when I see my name in the newspapers.
255
As a little boy, my first job was delivering newspapers, and then I had a variety of different jobs. I worked in a butcher shop. I worked in a supermarket. I worked in construction. I dug ditches on the Long Island Expressway in 1954, 1955, 1956.
256
I don’t have newspapers in my house. I have a news application which only gives me important news, no Bollywood. So even if there is some report about me, I don’t know.
257
258
259
We don’t comment on special forces operations. And if you run an operation for a long time as we have here, and in Libya, eventually newspapers like the Times report it.
260
I don’t read all the newspapers.
261
The web has changed the way we organise information in a very clear way: from the boundaried, solid format of books and newspapers to something liquid and free-flowing, with limitless possibilities.
262
I love speculating about solutions to problems in mathematics. I have no interest whatever in sudoku. But I do look at chess and bridge problems in newspapers. I find that relaxing.
263
264
American newspapers are dying mostly because they were so dull for so long, a whole generation gave up on them.
265
I get into all sorts of trouble with my publicists and with newspapers because I won’t do photographs.
266
Why did I become a writer? Because I grew up in New York City, and there were seven newspapers in New York City, and my family was an inveterate reader of newspapers and I loved holding a paper in my hand. It was something sacred.
267
My feelings towards the newspapers are very affectionate.
268
269
My parents taught me a great thing when I was a little kid to not read newspapers or follow the media.
270
271
Comics are given serious attention now and I’m quite surprised. You see them reviewed in major newspapers and exhibited in serious museums. I wouldn’t have predicted it.
272
The old attitude toward newspapers was that they were completely disposable – today’s newspaper is tomorrow‘s fish wrap.
273
274
The American mind, unlike the English, is not formed by books, but, as Carl Sandburg once said to me… by newspapers and the Bible.
275
All our reporters and editors now work seamlessly in print and online. This integration has transformed the way we work. I believe this is vital to the success and growth of newspapers.
276
I was fortunate that I was at newspapers for eight years, where I wrote at least five or six stories every week. You get used to interviewing lots of different people about a lot of different things. And they aren’t things you know about until you do the story.
277
I wanted no other job than to work in newspapers. I was fascinated by the process of collecting information, talking to people and having the story appear in a paper that would be delivered in your letterbox.
278
Somebody once said I had a face for radio and a voice for newspapers.
279
The problem of burgeoning population can be addressed if we begin with women itself. And, we need to educate them and spread awareness about birth control and family planning through TV channels and newspapers.
280
When I graduated from college, I tried my hardest to get a job at an accounting firm, and it just wasn’t meant to be. I ended up delivering pizzas and newspapers. I knew my life was cracked up to be a little more.
281
282
Newspapers always excite curiosity. No one ever puts one down without the feeling of disappointment.
283
I don’t read the newspapers, to be quite honest with you.
284
If I had all the qualities that the newspapers are talking about, I’d be the best player in history.
285
Seeing my name in the newspapers after winning the national junior championship motivated me to win more medals and I have never looked back since then.
286
Three centuries after the appearance of Franklin‘s ‘Courant’, it no longer requires a dystopic imagination to wonder who will have the dubious distinction of publishing America’s last genuine newspaper. Few believe that newspapers in their current printed form will survive.
287
Those media reporters who know me well and my friends know what my real personality is. Those who read newspapers and watch TV don’t know what my real personality is.
288
The reason we have not gone to newspapers is because its a slow growth industry and I think they are dying. I’m not sure there will be newspapers in 10 years. I read newspapers every day. I even read Murdoch’s Wall Street Journal.
289
290
Despite my involvement in difficult and sometimes controversial questions I have received consistent support from the people of Ashfield. They have recognised that it is necessary to take difficult decisions, that newspapers do not always report fairly or accurately.
291
292
293
294
295
296
297
I’ve always read the papers but didn’t feel I knew enough in the past. But doing the research and looking at newspapers and online websites gives you a 360-degree view of the news.
298
299
I think the people will- who advocate having a step back and read those public opinion polls on the front page of the newspapers all over this country saying public supports restoration in restoration of the Everglades, protection of the parks and the creation of monuments.
300
301
We live under a government of men and morning newspapers.
302
303
Those newspapers of the nation which most loudly cried dictatorship against me would have been the first to justify the beginnings of dictatorship by somebody else.
304

I do think the biggest problem newspapers have is loss of trust, and I feel that’s a result of failure to speak truth to power.
306
The American press has the blues. Too many authorities have assured it that its days are numbered, too many good newspapers are in ruins.

I think politicians who suggest they are uninterested in the support of newspapers are not being straight with people.
312
I’m in production year round. I work long hours. I have a dog and a wife. There’s not a lot of available time for consuming any culture: T.V., movies, books. When I read, it’s generally magazines, newspapers and web sites.
313
I got overwhelmed by the magnitude of the celebrity culture in America. My background is as a news journalist, and newsrooms in the US are shrinking – investigation teams are being terminated or shrunk on newspapers all around the country. The one aspect that’s expanded is coverage of celebrity culture.
314
Twitter has always been that refreshing place where I can quickly find out what is going on in my tech world. I follow mostly entrepreneurs and VCs – some who I know and some who I don’t know. I have a few companies in my feed. But no newspapers, no magazines, and no mainstream media.
315
The Fifties and Sixties were years of unreal optimism about weather forecasting. Newspapers and magazines were filled with hope for weather science, not just for prediction but for modification and control. Two technologies were maturing together: the digital computer and the space satellite.
316
Ultimately, your economy has to be measured in the real eyes of real people, not simply in statistics that appear in newspapers about the unemployment rate and so forth.

I’m not against digital photography. It’s great for newspapers. And there are photographers doing great work digitally. When they use Photoshop as a darkroom tool, that’s fine, too. But at this point of my life, after so many years, I don’t really want to change, and I still love film.
320
My name was on the list very early after these announcements were made through the newspapers in Europe.
321
I have always argued that newspapers should not have any civic purpose beyond telling readers what is happening… A reporter who doesn’t quickly tell readers what they most want to know – the score – won’t last long. Better he should teach political science.

‘Modesty Blaise’ is not well known in the United States, but in the United Kingdom, she’s an institution – especially for a comic book reader of a certain age. She’s a wonderful creation, and her strip ran in newspapers for a long time. So whenever female spies come to mind for us, they think of ‘Modesty Blaise’.
324
Somebody did an article in one of the newspapers saying that at that time I had the most visibility of any actor around. Kind of nice, you know, when that thing was happening.
325
What I’m interested in is how your career choices can affect your private life, romantically or with your mom, your relatives, your friends, your hometown, and how media manipulates information – not newspapers or blogs, but the magazines that people impulse-buy that tell you what’s hot and who’s not.
326
I don’t want to be in the newspapers or to feel like I have to manipulate things to make my life seem a way it’s not.
327
328
Having loving and supporting parents didn’t make me feel any better about the possibility of seeing my personal life splashed across newspapers and tabloids.
329
The smaller newspapers probably won’t have any critics at all. Maybe that’s not such a bad thing because there’s a certain level of seriousness that you can’t get with a small newspaper for critics.
330
I don’t read newspapers or watch the news on TV, deliberately to avoid the noise.
331
332
One of the Sunday newspapers asked me to make my favorite dish, and they photographed me holding it in the kitchen. It was roasted salmon with roasted vegetables. That’s not cooking; that’s putting things in a pan. It looked quite nice, but I’m not saying it was good.
333
334
You should always believe what you read in the newspapers, for that makes them more interesting.
335
The Internet is king. Newspapers are dead or dying. Magazines are shrinking every day. Ad budgets are being cut. The bottom line is now the only line in advertising.

My father, while touring Ramanathapuram, came to know about my affiliation with the BJP when newspapers carried articles about the new faces of the party.

One could not be a successful scientist without realizing that, in contrast to the popular conception supported by newspapers and mothers of scientists, a goodly number of scientists are not only narrow-minded and dull, but also just stupid.
341
And the big issue here, I think, is that the publisher took over the editorial pages, a guy named Jeff Johnson. He’s an accountant from Chicago, doesn’t know anything about what newspapers are supposed to be about, and he made a decision to get rid of the column.
342
If you are an addict yourself, how are you going to fight drugs? That’s why the dope test is compulsory for Punjab Police personnel and youngsters joining, regardless of what newspapers are saying that women should be exempted.

Bootleggers were romanticized by people like F. Scott Fitzgerald, for example. Gatsby is a bootlegger. And they were not thought of as evil criminals in the newspapers, either. There was a certain amount of affection for them.
347
I have been an actor for more than 125 films now. People see me every day, every hour, be it on TV or in newspapers.

And I sometimes find that members of my family are reading completely different news from what I’m reading, because they’re not reading general interest newspapers at all. They’re getting all their news from certain Internet sites that are rather political.
