Famous quotes containing the words individual, speedway and/or european:

Of the baby tortoise.
Outward and visible indication of the plan within,
The complex, manifold involvedness of an individual creature”

“The improved American highway system ... isolated the American-in-transit. On his speedway ... he had no contact with the towns which he by-passed. If he stopped for food or gas, he was served no local fare or local fuel, but had one of Howard Johnson’s nationally branded ice cream flavors, and so many gallons of Exxon. This vast ocean of superhighways was nearly as free of culture as the sea traversed by the Mayflower Pilgrims.”
—Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)
“The time to enjoy a European tour is about three weeks after you unpack.”
—George Ade (1866–1944)
