Airplane/plot

Famous quotes containing the words airplane and/or plot:

    If we did not have such a thing as an airplane today, we would probably create something the size of N.A.S.A. to make one.
    H. Ross Perot (b. 1930)

    James’s great gift, of course, was his ability to tell a plot in shimmering detail with such delicacy of treatment and such fine aloofness—that is, reluctance to engage in any direct grappling with what, in the play or story, had actually “taken place”Mthat his listeners often did not, in the end, know what had, to put it in another way, “gone on.”
    James Thurber (1894–1961)
