Famous quotes containing the words system and/or packet:
“Television is an excellent system when one has nothing to lose, as is the case with a nomadic and rootless country like the United States, but in Europe the affect of television is that of a bulldozer which reduces culture to the lowest possible denominator.”
—Marc Fumaroli (b. 1932)
“we know our end
A packet of worm-seed, a garden of spent tissues.”
