Upscale people are fixated with food simply because they are now able to eat so much of it without getting fat, and the reason they don't get fat is that they maintain a profligate level of calorie expenditure.

That's why the slightest technical hitch, the slightest slip on the part of the presenter becomes so exciting, for it reveals the depth of the emptiness squinting out at us through this little window. — Jean Baudrillard

If anybody reads an Indian newspaper, all these things are obvious, and so I am not breaking news. All I am doing is representing my community as it actually is.

Even within my stories, people hold opposing views. — Akhil Sharma
I do think comics are a dying art form because newspapers are a dying medium. But it's not to say that in the next generation, where there's people getting their news electronically, comics won't survive. Right now, they're still largely attached to the newspaper world. And the more they can break away from that, the more they have a chance to live on. — Aaron McGruder

The bulk of my career was in TV. — Gayle King

Since September 11, the Mirror has reached back to its roots, and decided, it seems, to be something of its old self again. I received a call asking if I would write for it again, which I've done.

The Mirror is breaking ranks, and that's good news. — John Pilger

Whereupon the pastor dropped dead. — Art Linkletter
Breaking news is the most masturbating thing journalists do. — Felix Salmon
How can one explain all the time and thought that goes into raising a child, all the opportunities for mistakes, all the chances to recover and try again?

The good news is you can get a lot of information off the Internet for free and in a hurry.

Usually they are quick to discover that I cannot see or hear.... It is not training but love which impels them to break their silence about me with the thud of a tail rippling against my chair on gambols round the study, or news conveyed by expressive ear, nose, and paw.
