Waves Travel

Famous quotes containing the words waves and/or travel:

    His bold head
    ‘Bove the contentious waves he kept, and oared
    Himself with his good arms in lusty stroke
    To the shore.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    In sci-fi convention, life-forms that hadn’t developed space travel were mere prehistory—horse-shoe crabs of the cosmic scene—and something of the humiliation of being stuck on a provincial planet in a galactic backwater has stayed with me ever since.
    Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
