Famous quotes containing the words open and/or access:

    To become wise you have to want to experience certain experiences, and so to run into their open jaws. This is very dangerous, to be sure; many a “wise man” has been eaten up in doing so.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    The professional celebrity, male and female, is the crowning result of the star system of a society that makes a fetish of competition. In America, this system is carried to the point where a man who can knock a small white ball into a series of holes in the ground with more efficiency than anyone else thereby gains social access to the President of the United States.
    C. Wright Mills (1916–1962)
