Famous quotes containing the words long and/or adventures:
“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)
“We know that their adventures are childish. They themselves are fools. They are ready to kill or be killed over a card-game in which an opponentor they themselveswas cheating. Yet, thanks to such fellows, tragedies are possible.”
—Jean Genet (19101986)
