If you don’t read the newspaper, you’re uninformed; if you do read the newspaper, you’re misinformed.

 
Samuel Langhorne (Mark Twain) Clemens
 

If you don’t read the newspaper, you’re uninformed; if you do read the newspaper, you’re misinformed.

 
Mark Twain
 

I've repeatedly said that for people as little in common as Joanne and myself, we have an uncommonly good marriage. We are actors, we make pictures — and that's about all we have in common. Maybe that's enough. Wives shouldn't feel obligated to accompany their husbands to a ball game, husbands do look a bit silly attending morning coffee breaks with the neighbourhood wives when most men are out at work. Husbands and wives should have separate interests, cultivate different sets of friends — and not impose one upon the other.

 
Paul Newman
 

The newspapers! Sir, they are the most villainous — licentious — abominable — infernal — Not that I ever read them — no — I make it a rule never to look into a newspaper.

 
Richard Brinsley Sheridan
 

Some men are born husbands; they have a passion for domesticity, for a fireside, for a home. Yet, curiously, these men very rarely stay at home. Apparently what they want is to have a place to get away from.
