American Airlines Flight

Famous quotes containing the words american and/or flight:

“If that’s the world’s smartest man, God help us.”
—Lucille Feynman, mother of American physicist Richard Feynman (1918-1988)

“It is marvelous indeed to watch on television the rings of Saturn close; and to speculate on what we may yet find at galaxy’s edge. But in the process, we have lost the human element; not to mention the high hope of those quaint days when flight would create “one world.” Instead of one world, we have “star wars,” and a future in which dumb dented human toys will drift mindlessly about the cosmos long after our small planet’s dead.”
—Gore Vidal (b. 1925)
