“I believe that few people aside from myself have any idea of the tremendous, the almost invincible power and force of the daily press. I am one of those who believe that at least in America the press rules the country; it rules its politics, its religion, its social practice.”
“I learned how easy it was for any man to do what he wanted to do, provided he really wanted to do it badly enough.”
