Long Track Speed

Famous quotes containing the words long, track and/or speed:

    And taken by light in her arms at long and dear last
    I may without fail
    Suffer the first vision that set fire to the stars.
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    The weary sun hath made a golden set,
    And by the bright track of his fiery car
    Gives token of a goodly day tomorrow.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The greatest felony in the news business today is to be behind, or to miss a big story. So speed and quantity substitute for thoroughness and quality, for accuracy and context. The pressure to compete, the fear somebody else will make the splash first, creates a frenzied environment in which a blizzard of information is presented and serious questions may not be raised.
    Carl Bernstein (b. 1944)
