I am very aware of the fact that it's highly unlikely anyone will write an article via their mobile phone. I've done it, but it's painful. And it's not just about the small keyboard and the small screen - though that's awful. It's the emotional exper...
An article can be timely, topical, engaged in the issues and personalities of the moment; it is likely to be stale within the month. In five years, it may have acquired the quaint aura of a rotary phone. An article is usually Siamese-twinned to its d...
A laborer no longer makes whole articles. He receives raw materials, puts his touch on them, and passes them to another worker in the series. When the articles are quite finished they are carried out of sight by currents of commercial exchange. These...
Pernilla Blomkvist: Don't go too hard on the Catholics! Mikael Blomkvist: What's that? Pernilla Blomkvist: The article you are writing about. Mikael Blomkvist: I'm not writing an article on the Catholics. Pernilla Blomkvist: The Bible quotes by your ...
