Cascade Failure

Famous quotes containing the words cascade and/or failure:

    “End of tomorrow.
    Don’t try to start the car or look deeper
    Into the eternal wimpling of the sky: luster
    On luster, transparency floated onto the topmost layer
    Until the whole thing overflows like a silver
    Wedding cake or Christmas tree, in a cascade of tears.”
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    The clearest explanation for the failure of any marriage is that the two people are incompatible—that is, that one is male and the other female.
    Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
