“You can be slum-born and slum-bred and still achieve something worth while; but it is a stupid inverted snobbishness to be proud of it. If one had a right to be proud of anything, it would be of a continued decent tradition back of one.”

“Many a healthy reaction has proved fatal.”
“The only question left to be settled now is: Are women persons? And I hardly believe any of our opponents will have the hardihood to say they are not.”

“I donâ€™t get wrapped up in technique and the like. I have a simple rule and that is to spend as much time in the location as possible. You canâ€™t expect to take a definitive image in half an hour. It takes days, often years. And in fact I donâ€™t believe there is such a thing as a definitive picture of something. The land is a living, breathing thing and light changes its character every second of every day. Thatâ€™s why I love it so much.”
“Behind every footballing tough guy there lurks a mincing aesthete with a love of art for art's sake, football for football's sake. A win without art is somehow less than a victory; less, almost, than a beautiful defeat. In football, the romantic and the pragmatist are ever at war in the same breast. Beauty, it must be understood here, is not Barcelona's aim but their method. And last night they were ready to use this method at every opportunity - quick-fire passing of wit and purpose in the danger areas, seeking always to produce an unlooked-for player in a position of threat.”
“The hardest thing about depression is that it is addictive. It begins to feel uncomfortable not to be depressed. You feel guilty for feeling happy.”
“The pressure to be timely with news has increased every year.”
