Excited States

Famous quotes containing the words excited and/or states:

“Moderation in all things is best, but it’s pretty hard to get excited about it.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

“I asked myself, “Is it going to prevent me from getting out of here? Is there a risk of death attached to it? Is it permanently disabling? Is it permanently disfiguring? Lastly, is it excruciating?” If it doesn’t fit one of those five categories, then it isn’t important.”
—Rhonda Cornum, United States Army Major. As quoted in Newsweek magazine, “Perspectives” page (July 13, 1992)
