Quips & Qoutes

The Times (1935): To be the first, but not the hastiest with the news; to be serious without dullness or solemnity; to persuade and not to dogmatise; to be emphatic without becoming hysterical; to be graphic without sensationalism; to give the story and reject the “stunt”; to miss nothing that is amusing and to keep the trivial in proportion; to give the news faithfully and fully without “featuring” the worst side of human nature – these have been the aims of The Times for generations, and these are its aims today.
