Bill Gibson

Famous quotes containing the words bill and/or gibson:

    No, the five hundred was the sum they named
    To pay the doctor’s bill and tide me over.
    It’s that or fight, and I don’t want to fight
    I just want to get settled in my life....
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    Night City was like a deranged experiment in Social Darwinism, designed by a bored researcher who kept one thumb permanently on the fast-forward button. Stop hustling and you sank without a trace, but move a little too swiftly and you’d break the fragile surface tension of the black market; either way, you were gone ... though heart or lungs or kidneys might survive in the service of some stranger with New Yen for the clinic tanks.
    —William Gibson (b. 1948)
