“Publishing is no longer simply a matter of picking worthy manuscripts and putting them on offer. It is now as important to market books properly, to work with the bookstore chains to get terms, co-op advertising, and the like. The difficulty is that publishers who can market are most often not the publishers with worthy lists.”
Olivia Goldsmith
“I learned long ago, never to wrestle with a pig, you get dirty; and besides, the pig likes it.”
George Bernard Shaw
“Mac Publishing covers the entire Mac Industry, and tonight we put them in the same room for a worthy cause. Companies in the Mac community often compete fiercely. The same competitive, fun spirit comes with them to the bowling alley. No matter who takes home the trophy, the real winners are the kids at Marshall.”
Jason Snell
“I always felt I had to prove I was worthy. Especially being a first-round (supplemental) pick and having your dad as a coach. I don't want anything ever to be just handed to me.”
Chris Duncan
“If you must fight, pick only worthy adversaries.”
C. W. Barron
“There is a grant application process where the proposal is reviewed by a committee that picks worthy programs and makes sure it goes with district objectives. At the end of the day, the money is not going into the teachers' pockets, but to the cost of implementing the program.”
Jeff Fink
“If there's a quarterback at [No.] 25 who's worthy of that pick, he would deserve a lot of consideration. There's no question about that. You don't get that opportunity very often, where a guy you really, really like is available to you. Those guys are hard to come by. There's a chance of that happening.”
