Famous quotes containing the words world and/or record:

    “For twenty-five centuries, Western knowledge has tried to look upon the world. It has failed to understand that the world is not for the beholding. It is for hearing. It is not legible, but audible. Our science has always desired to monitor, measure, abstract, and castrate meaning, forgetting that life is full of noise and that death alone is silent: work noise, noise of man, and noise of beast. Noise bought, sold, or prohibited. Nothing essential happens in the absence of noise.”
    —Jacques Attali (b. 1943)

    “The house seems heavier
    Now that they have gone away.
    In fact it emptied in record time.”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)
