Famous quotes containing the words world and/or series:
“One does not set fire to a world which is already lost.”
—Friedrich Dürrenmatt (1921–1990)
“The professional celebrity, male and female, is the crowning result of the star system of a society that makes a fetish of competition. In America, this system is carried to the point where a man who can knock a small white ball into a series of holes in the ground with more efficiency than anyone else thereby gains social access to the President of the United States.”
—C. Wright Mills (1916–1962)
