In keeping with the more relaxed weekend themes, here are a couple of m favorite journalism/writing quotes.

"Generally speaking, the best people nowadays go into journalism, the second best into business, the rubbish into politics and the shits into law." - Auberon Waugh
"The difference between the right word and the nearly right word is the difference between lightning and lightning bug." - Mark Twain
"In journalism, there has always been a tension between getting it first and getting it right." - Ellen Goodman
"I became a journalist to come as close as possible to the heart of the world." - Henry R. Luce
