I am convinced that dealing intelligently with the press is of the greatest importance to the success and effectiveness of a humanitarian mission.
Alvin Adams

No press conference announcing a last film. I'd just steal away. Best way because, if by chance after two or three years something interesting comes up, I would not - like Sinatra - have to say: "Well, I've thought it over and decided to come back."
Sophia Loren

The law isn't justice. It's a very imperfect mechanism. If you press exactly the right buttons and are also lucky, justice may show up in the answer. A mechanism is all the law was ever intended to be.
Raymond Chandler

The paramedic called the press and sold me like a loaf of bread. This was news, and he wanted to be the one to report it.
Charlie Sheen

I was trained to be an actor, not a star. I was trained to play roles, not to deal with fame and agents and lawyers and the press.
Gene Hackman

What was a problem was the excessive amount of media attention to the appointment of the first woman and everything she did. Everywhere that Sandra went, the press was sure to go. And that got tiresome; it was stressful.
Sandra Day O'Connor

Right afterwards there was a whole, whole lot of press to do, so the week after, all day, every day, was press so I didn't really get a chance to celebrate.
Carrie Underwood

The freedom of the press works in such a way that there is not much freedom from it.
Grace Kelly

Television doesn't make stars. It's the written media, the press, that makes stars.
Chevy Chase

The mission of the press is to spread culture while destroying the attention span.
Karl Kraus

Freedom of expression - in particular, freedom of the press - guarantees popular participation in the decisions and actions of government, and popular participation is the essence of our democracy.
Corazon Aquino

Woe to that nation whose literature is cut short by the intrusion of force. This is not merely interference with freedom of the press but the sealing up of a nation's heart, the excision of its memory.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

Hastiness and superficiality are the psychic diseases of the 20th century, and more than anywhere else this disease is reflected in the press.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

When I go to the press conference before the game, in my mind the game has already started.
Jose Mourinho

Facing the press is not easy, but because you have to go, you have to try to take a lot of positive things for yourself from these face-to-face meetings.
Jose Mourinho

Giving the same value to fiction as to fact in the interest of so-called fairness is to mislead the American people and the press has become party to that.
Joe Wilson

I think it's time for the people and the press, in particular, to be more vigilant about not giving equal weight to lies as they give the truth.
Joe Wilson

Bananarama were written off from day one. Nobody believed in us but us. We kept having hits despite the record company, despite the press.
Siobhan Fahey

When I began we did not really have a lot of First Amendment law. It is really surprising to think of it this way, but a lot of the law - most of the law that relates to the First Amendment freedom of the press in America - is really within living memory.
Floyd Abrams

I mean the idea of this is that it's a good thing for the public to hear interviews like this and that there will be an inevitable amount of fewer interviews if people that the press talks to wind up thinking, well, it's not really a CBS correspondent.
