“As a rule there is one thing you can always count on in our job — popularity. There are plenty of disadvantages I grant you, but you are liked and respected. Ring people up any hour of the day or night, butt into their houses uninvited make them answer a string of damn fool questions when they want to do something else — they like it. Always a smile and the best of everything for the gentlemen of the Press.”

“وَأَديبِ قَومٍ تَستَحِقُّ يَمينُهُ قَطعَ الأَنامِلِ أَو لَظى الإِحراقِ يَلهو وَيَلعَبُ بِالعُقولِ بَيانُهُ فَكَأَنَّهُ في السِحرِ رُقيَةُ راقي في كَفِّهِ قَلَمٌ يَمُجُّ لُعابُهُ سُمّاً وَيَنفِثُهُ عَلى الأَوراقِ يَرِدُ الحَقائِقَ وَهيَ بيضٌ نُصَّعٌ قُدسِيَّةٌ عُلوِيَّةُ الإِشراقِ فَيَرُدُّها سوداً عَلى جَنَباتِها مِن ظُلمَةَ التَمويهِ أَلفُ نِطاقِ عَرِيَت عَنِ الحَقِّ المُطَهَّرِ نَفسُهُ فَحَياتُهُ ثِقلٌ عَلى الأَعناقِ لَو كانَ ذا خُلُقٍ لَأَسعَدَ قَومَهُ بِبَيانِهِ وَيَراعِهِ السَبّاقِ”
