Famous quotes containing the words deep and/or space:

    “My vocabulary dwells deep in my mind and needs paper to wriggle out into the physical zone. Spontaneous eloquence seems to me a miracle. I have rewritten—often several times—every word I have ever published. My pencils outlast their erasers.”
    —Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)

    “For tribal man space was the uncontrollable mystery. For technological man it is time that occupies the same role.”
    —Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980)
