One of several pithy statements from The Golden Gate, June 16, 1880.
Ernest Hemingway liked his Corona typewriter well enough to write a poem about it, one of several poems published privately in 1923:

It is noteworthy that he was not the first to compare the typewriter to a mitrailleuse, a weapon similar to the Gatling gun. As early as 1880, people compared the typewriter to the mitrailleuse, as seen in one of the adages published by The Golden Gate.
