Journalism Is The Art Of Collecting Varying

To See Life. To See The World. To Watch The Faces Of The Poor, And The Gestures Of The Proud. To See Strange Things. Machines, Armies, Multitudes, And Shadows In The Jungle. To See, And To Take Pleasure In Seeing. To See And Be Instructed. To See And Be Amazed. (describing The Powers Of Photography; Written For The Launch Of Life Magazine, 1936.)

It's Easier To Teach A Poet How To Read A Balance Sheet Than It Is To Teach An Accountant How To Write.

Not Much Longer Shall We Have Time For Reading Lessons Of The Past. An Inexorable Present Calls Us To The Defense Of A Great Future.

To See, And To Show, Is The Mission Now Undertaken By Life.

I Became A Journalist To Come As Close As Possible To The Heart Of The World.
