Famous quotes containing the words the world and/or world:
“The day the world ends, no one will be there, just as no one was there when it began. This is a scandal. Such a scandal for the human race that it is indeed capable collectively, out of spite, of hastening the end of the world by all means just so it can enjoy the show.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
“What the Puritans gave the world was not thought, but action.”
—Wendell Phillips (1811–1884)
