Famous quotes containing the words rack and/or systems:
“Vex not his ghost. O, let him pass; he hates him
That would upon the rack of this tough world
Stretch him out longer.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“The skylines lit up at dead of night, the air- conditioning systems cooling empty hotels in the desert and artificial light in the middle of the day all have something both demented and admirable about them. The mindless luxury of a rich civilization, and yet of a civilization perhaps as scared to see the lights go out as was the hunter in his primitive night.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
