Famous quotes containing the word world:

“Philosophers are people who do violence, but have no army at their disposal, and so subjugate the world by locking it into a system.”
—Robert Musil (1880–1942)

“I have lived in both worlds. And I think I prefer, to the indifferent, haphazard, money- mad hurry of the Outside World, that of my world; that sympathy and understanding grown shadowy since I have been away from it so long, still is more real to me than the world I am in now. Not only the spangles and the gay trappings made it colorful; there was an inner color that warmed the soul. And that I miss.”
—Josephine Demott Robinson (1865–1948)

“All th’ world loves a good loser.”
—Kin Hubbard (F. [Frank] Mckinney Hubbard)
