Famous quotes containing the words high, speed and/or thrill:
“Ay, look: high heaven and earth ail from the prime foundation;

Oh, why did I awake? When shall I sleep again?”

You leave behind your skating mate.
Your splendid speed wont you abate?
Hes lagging far behind you, Kate.”

“One of lifes primal situations; the game of hide and seek. Oh, the delicious thrill of hiding while the others come looking for you, the delicious terror of being discovered, but what panic when, after a long search, the others abandon you! You mustnt hide too well. You mustnt be too good at the game. The player must never be bigger than the game itself.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
