Earth Object Survey

Famous quotes containing the words earth, object and/or survey:

    The poker player learns that sometimes both science and common sense are wrong; that the bumblebee can fly; that, perhaps, one should never trust an expert; that there are more things in heaven and earth than are dreamt of by those with an academic bent.
    David Mamet (b. 1947)

    For, if a “good speaker,” never so eloquent, does not see into the fact, and is not speaking the truth of that ... is there a more horrid kind of object in creation?
    Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881)

    When I survey the wondrous cross
    On which the Prince of Glory died,
    My richest gain I count but loss,
    And pour contempt on all my pride.
    Isaac Watts (1674–1748)
