Famous quotes containing the words hostile and/or planets:

“If you meet a sectary, or a hostile partisan, never recognize the dividing lines; but meet on what common ground remains,—if only that the sun shines, and the rain rains for both; the area will widen very fast, and ere you know it the boundary mountains, on which the eye had fastened, have melted into air.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“Perhaps when distant people on other planets pick up some wave-length of ours all they hear is a continuous scream.”
