2.1 What is it? (alt.quotations newsgroup)
News is what a chap who doesn't care much about
anything wants to read. And it's only news until he's read
it. After that it's dead.
Evelyn Waugh (1903-1966)
"Scoop" (1938) bk. 1, ch. 5
alt.quotations is a newsgroup for everything related to quotations;

various contributors, this is the place to be. You can also discuss
