Famous quotes containing the words infection and/or rates:
“What, then, was war? No mere discord of flags
But an infection of the common sky
That sagged ominously upon the earth”

“[The] elderly and timid single gentleman in Paris ... never drove down the Champs Elysees without expecting an accident, and commonly witnessing one; or found himself in the neighborhood of an official without calculating the chances of a bomb. So long as the rates of progress held good, these bombs would double in force and number every ten years.”
—Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)
