Overhead Plan View

Famous quotes containing the words overhead, plan and/or view:

    What a fog! Plane been buzzin’ around overhead for the last half hour. Must be like trying to find your way through the inside of a cow. I never did see such a country. Even the birds are walkin’.
    Dalton Trumbo (1905–1976)

    Max Detweiler: I get a fiendish delight thinking of you as the mother of seven. How do you plan to do it?
    The Baroness: Darling, haven’t you heard of a delightful little thing called boarding school?
    Ernest Lehman (b. 1920)

    Put shortly, these are the two views, then. One, that man is intrinsically good, spoilt by circumstance; and the other that he is intrinsically limited, but disciplined by order and tradition to something fairly decent. To the one party man’s nature is like a well, to the other like a bucket. The view which regards him like a well, a reservoir full of possibilities, I call the romantic; the one which regards him as a very finite and fixed creature, I call the classical.
    Thomas Ernest Hulme (1883–1917)
