Cave Systems

Famous quotes containing the words cave and/or systems:

    If the sea were ink
    For the words of my Lord,
    the sea would be spent before the Words of my Lord are spent.
    —Qur’An. The Cave 18:109, ed. Arthur J. Arberry (1955)

    The skylines lit up at dead of night, the air- conditioning systems cooling empty hotels in the desert and artificial light in the middle of the day all have something both demented and admirable about them. The mindless luxury of a rich civilization, and yet of a civilization perhaps as scared to see the lights go out as was the hunter in his primitive night.
    Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
