Famous quotes containing the words gibson and/or wrote:

“His ugliness was the stuff of legend. In an age of affordable beauty, there was something heraldic about his lack of it. The antique arm whined as he reached for another mug. It was a Russian military prosthesis, a seven-function force-feedback manipulator, cased in grubby pink plastic.”
—William Gibson (b. 1948)

“To speak critically, I never received more than one or two letters in my life—I wrote this some years ago—that were worth the postage.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
