David Horsey Quotes

Experience shows us that most people’s votes are based on their biases, not on objective reality. Elections are a collective gut reaction. That any good comes of it at all is the miracle of democracy Picture Quote #1

If political cartoonists continue to rely on newspapers, we may be in serious trouble. It’s a very transferable form of journalism, though - it works great on Web sites Picture Quote #1

Elevating the status of women is our best path to peace, justice, and prosperity on a global scale Picture Quote #1

It is really no surprise that, in a media world that has been so compromised by an invasion of political partisans and inarticulate airheads with communications degrees, a fake journalist can seem more trustworthy than the real thing Picture Quote #1

Even if you’re drawing a cartoon and exaggerating, you want to capture something true about the person Picture Quote #1

I’ve always called myself a journalist who happens to draw. If I wasn’t drawing cartoons, I’d be writing stories Picture Quote #1

Like gods, we have created a new universe called cyberspace that contains great good and ominous evil. We do not know yet if this new dimension will produce more monsters than marvels, but it is too late to go back Picture Quote #1

Americans rightly, but sometimes excessively, celebrate every person in uniform as a hero, but seldom honor the difficult and often dangerous work being done day after day by members of our diplomatic corps. Warriors capture the popular imagination more easily than peacemakers Picture Quote #1

We need to work for a day when police shootings are rare and not the stuff of our daily news Picture Quote #1

From China and India to Turkey and Brazil, when women have gotten access to education, to family planning and to a vital place in the economy, greater prosperity has followed. And when women are free to speak and learn, they temper the extremes of ideology and fanaticism and raise sons who are less likely to become human bombs Picture Quote #1

When, in his first inaugural address, Ronald Reagan famously said government is the problem, not the solution, he established the Republican mantra that has not changed in all the years since. It was a clever bit of rhetoric, but it has turned too many Republicans into economic simpletons Picture Quote #1

Yes, the disruption of the Internet can be blamed for the destruction of the business model that once made journalism a thriving, well-paying enterprise, but it has also created an array of new tools for reporting. Somebody will eventually figure out how to make online newspapers profitable - I hope Picture Quote #1

I am no technophobe. I like being able to calibrate communication, depending on the situation - texting for the simple and immediate; email for business or when I want to put some lag time into the exchange; Twitter to promote something; Facebook to draw a crowd Picture Quote #1

A couple of websites I’ve come across credit the ‘New York Times’ for reporting that 12,000 women a year are arrested for breastfeeding in public. I could not confirm that number with a quick search, but even 1,200 would be too many - or even 12 Picture Quote #1

In America, we have a government that some people believe is too big and overbearing, yet, when it comes to guns, we might as well have no government at all Picture Quote #1

I’m skeptical of the ‘go local’ approach to cartooning to preserve your job Picture Quote #1

Maybe it’s stress or anger or adrenaline or disillusionment or a bullying nature or simple fear of getting killed themselves, but there is a problem if a cop cannot tell the difference between a menacing gangster and the far more common person they encounter whose life is a little frayed and messy Picture Quote #1

In a world of cell phones and satellite feeds - a world in which the president can sit in the White House situation room and watch a military action unfold on the other side of the world - it is not realistic to expect TV news to be anything but what it has become: a ceaseless flow of words and images that may or may not be accurate Picture Quote #1
