Famous quotes containing the words world and/or series:

    “Total physical and mental inertia are highly agreeable, much more so than we allow ourselves to imagine. A beach not only permits such inertia but enforces it, thus neatly eliminating all problems of guilt. It is now the only place in our overly active world that does.”
    —John Kenneth Galbraith (b. 1908)

    “Mortality: not acquittal but a series of postponements is what we hope for.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
