Henry Adams Quotes
Yet The Press Was Still The Last Resource Of The Educated Poor Who Could Not Be Artists And Would Not Be Tutors. Any Man Who Was Fit For Nothing Else Could Write An Editorial Or A Criticism. The Enormous Mass Of Misinformation Accumulated In Ten Years Of Nomad Life Could Always Be Worked Off On A Helpless Public, In Diluted Doses, If One Could But Secure A Table In The Corner Of A Newspaper Office. The Press Was An Inferior Pulpit; An Anonymous Schoolmaster; A Cheap Boarding-school But It Was Still The Nearest Approach To A Career For The Literary Survivor Of A Wrecked Education.
