Thin Space

Famous quotes containing the words thin and/or space:

    I remember how they picked me up, a spindly kid,
    Pinching and poking my thin ribs
    Till I lay in their laps, laughing,
    Weak as a whiffet;
    Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)

    What a phenomenon it has been—science fiction, space fiction—exploding out of nowhere, unexpectedly of course, as always happens when the human mind is being forced to expand; this time starwards, galaxy-wise, and who knows where next.
    Doris Lessing (b. 1919)
