Quote

The last thing we want is politicians running newspapers, but so too we don't want newspapers running the government.

We're newspaper junkies; I can't imagine life without a newspaper.

In politics women type the letters, lick the stamps, distribute the pamphlets and get out the vote. Men get elected.

I think we'll always have newspapers, but they'll lose influence.

Washington newspaper men know everything.

Government is an association of men who do violence to the rest of us.

I'm not going to have some reporters pawing through our papers. We are the president.

And we also read Newsweek, Time and several newspapers.

In government offices which are sensitive to the vehemence and passion of mass sentiment public men have no sure tenure. They are in effect perpetual office seekers, always on trial for their political lives, always required to court their restless constituents.
