Famous quotes containing the words planet and/or simpson:

    Have you not budged an inch, then? Such is the daily news. Its facts appear to float in the atmosphere.... We should wash ourselves clean of such news. Of what consequence, though our planet explode, if there is no character involved in the explosion? In health we have not the least curiosity about such events. We do not live for idle amusement. I would not run round a corner to see the world blow up.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The man who married Magdalene
    Had not forgiven her.
    God might pardon every sin . . .
    Love is no pardoner.
    —Louis Simpson (b. 1923)
