Famous quotes containing the words malicious and/or program:

    The Sage of Toronto ... spent several decades marveling at the numerous freedoms created by a “global village” instantly and effortlessly accessible to all.

Which is a precise enough description of the global spectacle’s present vulgarity.
    Guy Debord (b. 1931)

    Alexander Woollcott broadcasts the story of the wife who returned a dog to the Seeing Eye with this note attached: “I am sending the dog back. My husband used to depend on me. Now he is independent, and I never know where he is.”
