Famous quotes containing the words flight, attendant and/or call:
“It is marvelous indeed to watch on television the rings of Saturn close; and to speculate on what we may yet find at galaxys 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 planets dead.”
—Gore Vidal (b. 1925)
“Every human being has, like Socrates, an attendant spirit; and wise are they who obey its signals. If it does not always tell us what to do, it always cautions us what not to do.”
—Lydia M. Child (18021880)
“Thatcher: Youre too old to call me Mr. Thatcher, Charles.
Charles Foster Kane: Youre too old to be called anything else. You were always too old.”
—Orson Welles (19151985)
