Missile Tests

Famous quotes containing the words missile and/or tests:

“... the truth is the hardest missile one can be pelted with.”
—George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)

“It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past.... Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”
—George Steiner (b. 1929)
