Fast Action Battlers

Famous quotes containing the words fast and/or action:

    Man ... cannot learn to forget, but hangs on the past: however far or fast he runs, that chain runs with him.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    To play is nothing but the imitative substitution of a pleasurable, superfluous and voluntary action for a serious, necessary, imperative and difficult one. At the cradle of play as well as of artistic activity there stood leisure, tedium entailed by increased spiritual mobility, a horror vacui, the need of letting forms no longer imprisoned move freely, of filling empty time with sequences of notes, empty space with sequences of form.
    Max J. Friedländer (1867–1958)
