Famous quotes containing the words organism and/or capable:
“The problems of the world, AIDS, cancer, nuclear war, pollution, are, finally, no more solvable than the problem of a tree which has borne fruit: the apples are overripe and they are falling—what can be done?... Nothing can be done, and nothing needs to be done. Something is being done—the organism is preparing to rest.”
—David Mamet (b. 1947)
“To live without killing is a thought which could electrify the world, if men were only capable of staying awake long enough to let the idea soak in.”
—Henry Miller (1891–1980)
