Neutral Plane

Famous quotes containing the words neutral and/or plane:

    “The lonely Earth amid the balls
    That hurry through the eternal halls,
    A makeweight flying to the void,
    Supplemental asteroid,
    Or compensatory spark,
    Shoots across the neutral Dark.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “We’ve got to figure these things a little bit different than most people. Y’know, there’s something about going out in a plane that beats any other way.... A guy that washes out at the controls of his own ship, well, he goes down doing the thing that he loved the best. It seems to me that that’s a very special way to die.”
    —Dalton Trumbo (1905–1976)
