Famous quotes containing the word world:

    “It is not in the world of ideas that life is lived. Life is lived for better or worse in life, and to a man in life, his life can be no more absurd than it can be the opposite of absurd, whatever that opposite may be.”
    —Archibald MacLeish (1892–1982)
