Famous quotes containing the words ray and/or casting:

    It has never been my object to record my dreams, just the determination to realize them.
    —Man Ray (1890–1976)

    This I do know and can say to you: Our country is in more danger now than at any time since the Declaration of Independence. We don’t dare follow the Lindberghs, Wheelers and Nyes, casting suspicion, sowing discord around the leadership of Franklin D. Roosevelt. We don’t want revolution among ourselves.
    Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
