World Interest

Famous quotes containing the words world and/or interest:

“Science in the modern world has many uses; its chief use, however, is to provide long words to cover the errors of the rich.”

“Consider the difference between looking and staring. A look is voluntary; it is also mobile, rising and falling in intensity as its foci of interest are taken up and then exhausted. A stare has, essentially, the character of a compulsion; it is steady, unmodulated, “fixed.””
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
