I'm not ashamed of any of my papers at all and I'm rather sick of snobs that tell us that they're bad papers, snobs who only read papers that no one else wants. I doubt if they read many papers at all.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm drowning in papers.
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.
Sometimes I worry about the amount of paper I waste.
I'm quite shy, so I hate seeing my private life splashed over the papers.
It is grievous to read the papers in most respects, I agree. More and more I skim the headlines only, for one can be sure what is carried beneath them quite automatically, if one has long been a reader of the press journalism.
I don't read the papers; I stopped reading the papers. I read the papers only during periods of crisis, and I think papers are too long on a regular day and too short days when we have a crisis.
Never be ashamed! There's some who'll hold it against you, but they're not worth bothering with.
I think at times I read too much of my own press. I wish I was better at taking in how great my life is, but that's surprisingly elusive. I tend to be very hard on myself and insecure about failing no matter what happens.
I wrote a great deal... but very little of any importance; there are not more than four of five papers which I can still remember with some satisfaction.
I do not take a single newspaper, nor read one a month, and I feel myself infinitely the happier for it.
