Famous quotes containing the words american, race and/or walking:

    Wit. The salt with which the American humorist spoils his intellectual cookery by leaving it out.
    Ambrose Bierce (1842–1914)

    Self-determination, the autonomy of the individual, asserts itself in the right to race his automobile, to handle his power tools, to buy a gun, to communicate to mass audiences his opinion, no matter how ignorant, how aggressive, it may be.
    Herbert Marcuse (1898–1979)

    Out, out, brief candle!
    Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player
    That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
    And then is heard no more. It is a tale
    Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
    Signifying nothing.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
