"We live in a dirty and dangerous world. There are some things the
general public does not need to know, and shouldn't. I believe
democracy flourishes when the government can take legitimate steps
to keep its secrets and when the press can decide whether to print
what it knows." | by: | Katharine Graham
(1917-2001) American publisher, owner of Washington Post and Newsweek magazine. |
