Actual Exhaust Velocity

Famous quotes containing the words actual and/or exhaust:

“I stand in awe of my body, this matter to which I am bound has become so strange to me. I fear not spirits, ghosts, of which I am one,—that my body might,—but I fear bodies, I tremble to meet them. What is this Titan that has possession of me? Talk of mysteries! Think of our life in nature,—daily to be shown matter, to come in contact with it,—rocks, trees, wind on our cheeks! the solid earth! the actual world! the common sense! Contact! Contact! Who are we? where are we?”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“Only the really plain people know about love—the very fascinating ones try so hard to create an impression that they very soon exhaust their talents.”
—Katharine Hepburn (b. 1909)
