Destroying Track

Famous quotes containing the words destroying and/or track:

“As societies grow decadent, the language grows decadent, too. Words are used to disguise, not to illuminate, action: you liberate a city by destroying it. Words are to confuse, so that at election time people will solemnly vote against their own interests.”
—Gore Vidal (b. 1925)

“He who rides and keeps the beaten track studies the fences chiefly.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
