Famous quotes containing the words world and/or heritage:
“You see, in a world where elephants are pursued by flying men, people are just naturally going to want to get high.”
—Judith Rascoe, U.S. screenwriter, Robert Stone (b. 1939)
“There are some things which cannot be learned quickly, and time, which is all we have, must be paid heavily for their acquiring. They are the very simplest things and because it takes a man’s life to know them the little new that each man gets from life is very costly and the only heritage he has to leave.”
—Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
