Top War Correspondents Quotes

War Correspondents Quotes By Matthew Akers

The world asks, "How can a loving God send anyone to hell?"

A loving God answers, "How can anyone reject a loving God? — Matthew Akers

War Correspondents Quotes By David Edelstein

Well, the movie isn't bad. For a while, I even told myself I liked it, even as it missed one mark after another. But in the end, it's shapeless and blandly apolitical, apart from its watered-down feminism. You see, Fey's Kim Baker - changed from Barker - transforms herself from a neophyte reporter, condescended to by male war correspondents, soldiers and Afghan officials, into a hard-charging political animal who speaks the language fluently and parties as hard as men. That's about as edgy as a sitcom. — David Edelstein

War Correspondents Quotes By A.J. Liebling

To the Parisians, and especially to the children, all Americans are now 'heros du cinema.' This is particularly disconcerting to sensitive war correspondents, if any, aware, as they are, that these innocent thanks belong to those American combat troops who won the beachhead and then made the breakthrough. There are few such men in Paris. — A.J. Liebling

War Correspondents Quotes By Peter F. Hamilton

Kelly was starting to have serious second thoughts about the whole assignment. Like all war correspondents, she supposed. Being on the ground was very different to sitting in the office anticipating being on the ground. Especially with the appearance of that red cloud. — Peter F. Hamilton

War Correspondents Quotes By Malcolm Lowry

In the war to come correspondents would assume unheard of importance, plunging through flame to feed the public its little gobbets of dehydrated excrement. — Malcolm Lowry

War Correspondents Quotes By Ulysses S. Grant

Correspondents of the press were ever on hand to hear every word dropped, and were not always disposed to report correctly what did not confirm their preconceived notions, either about the conduct of the war or the individuals concerned in it. — Ulysses S. Grant

War Correspondents Quotes By John Lyly

All men [are] of one metal, but not in one mold. — John Lyly

War Correspondents Quotes By Beck Anderson

Months slip through the house surreptitiously, like uninvited spirits. — Beck Anderson

War Correspondents Quotes By Dick Morris

The Iraq War marked the beginning of the end of network news coverage. Viewers saw the juxtaposition of the embedded correspondents reporting the war as it was actually unfolding and the jaundiced, biased, negative coverage of these same events in the network newsrooms. — Dick Morris

War Correspondents Quotes By Auberon Herbert

It is the small owner who offers the only really profitable and reliable material for taxation. He is made for taxation. — Auberon Herbert

War Correspondents Quotes By Richard Engel

From seven hundred journalists at the beginning of March, the number had dwindled to about one hundred and fifty - print reporters, TV correspondents, photographers, cameramen, and support personnel. At the press center I encountered Kazem, who only a week before I had asked for help with my visa. "Why are you staying when everyone else is leaving?" he asked. I took a chance and replied in Arabic. Some journalists, I said, are as samid as the Iraqi people. Samid means "steadfast" and "brave" and is the adjective most often used by Iraqis to describe themselves. Kazem laughed and threw his arm around my shoulder. — Richard Engel

War Correspondents Quotes By Steve Anderson

In decades from now, I'm sure they'll say we Joes were all noble, every one of us grimy but patriotic cherubs. Because we won a war. Back home they already do think it, thanks to the publicity teams, the ads, correspondents, censors. I'm not buying it. If we have to come here and fight to do away with your Hitler and the sorry mess he created, then people ought to know just how much the effort sucks all our souls. That way, maybe no one will try a war again. — Steve Anderson

War Correspondents Quotes By Chris Hedges

I learned early on that war forms its own culture. The rush of battle is a potent and often lethal addiction, for war is a drug, one I ingested for many years. It is peddled by mythmakers- historians, war correspondents, filmmakers, novelists, and the state- all of whom endow it with qualities it often does possess: excitement, exoticism, power, chances to rise above our small stations in life, and a bizarre and fantastic universe that has a grotesque and dark beauty. — Chris Hedges

War Correspondents Quotes By John Maynard Keynes

The duty of "saving" became nine-tenths of virtue and the growth of the cake the object of true religion. — John Maynard Keynes

War Correspondents Quotes By Charles Dickens

Take nothing on its looks; take everything on evidence. There's no better rule. — Charles Dickens

War Correspondents Quotes By L.G. Space

The unknown is only that which has not yet been revealed ... The unfound but a journey not ended — L.G. Space

War Correspondents Quotes By Friedrich Nietzsche

Affirmation of life even in its strangest and sternest problems; the will to life rejoicing in its own inexhaustibility through the sacrifice of its highest types - that is what I call dionysian — Friedrich Nietzsche

War Correspondents Quotes By Holly Hurd

The most important step in the whole process was to just sit down and do it. My hobby has become a second career. Who knew?-Jamie Beck, Romance Novelist — Holly Hurd

War Correspondents Quotes By Oscar Wilde

Nature is no great mother who has home us. She is our own creation. It is in our brain that she quickens to life. Things are because we see them, and what we see and how we see it depends on the arts that have influenced us. To look at a thing is very different from seeing a thing. One does not see anything until one sees its beauty. — Oscar Wilde

War Correspondents Quotes By Jim Walton

During the war, in which several of our embedded correspondents were able to report from moving vehicles crossing the Iraqi desert, the use of technology made news gathering safer. — Jim Walton

War Correspondents Quotes By Carlos Castaneda

Man lives only to learn. And if he learns it is because it is the nature of his lot, for good or bad. — Carlos Castaneda
