Gerald of Wales Quotes
For human nature is so made that only what is unusual and infrequent excites wonder or is regarded as of value.

When, however, an eclipse of the sun takes place, everyone is amazed - because it happens rarely.

We all have our likes and our dislikes. But... when we're doing news - when we're doing the front-page news, not the back page, not the op-ed pages, but when we're doing the daily news, covering politics - it is our duty to be sure that we do not permit our prejudices to show.
