E.B. White's granddaughter Martha selects quotations from the venerable children's author and New Yorker essay writer in In the Words of E.B. White: Quotations from America's Most Companionable of Writers (Cornell University Press, $22.95, 232 pp.). The quotes cover everything from bees to fatherhood to the species of White's most famous creation: spiders. "Spiders expect to have their webs busted, and take it in their stride," White wrote.
Our name is about honesty. The Monitor is owned by The Christian Science Church, and we’ve always been transparent about that.
The Church publishes the Monitor because it sees good journalism as vital to progress in the world. Since 1908, we’ve aimed “to injure no man, but to bless all mankind,” as our founder, Mary Baker Eddy, put it.
Here, you’ll find award-winning journalism not driven by commercial influences – a news organization that takes seriously its mission to uplift the world by seeking solutions and finding reasons for credible hope.
