Event Horizons

Famous quotes containing the words event and/or horizons:

    Found a family, build a state,
    The pledged event is still the same:
    Matter in end will never abate
    His ancient brutal claim.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    The lives of happy people are dense with their own doings—crowded, active, thick.... But the sorrowing are nomads, on a plain with few landmarks and no boundaries; sorrow’s horizons are vague and its demands are few.
    Larry McMurtry (b. 1936)
