Famous quotes containing the words rocket and/or launch:
“A rocket is a reed that thinks brilliantly.”
—José Bergamín (1895–1983)
“I had often stood on the banks of the Concord, watching the lapse of the current, an emblem of all progress, following the same law with the system, with time, and all that is made ... and at last I resolved to launch myself on its bosom and float whither it would bear me.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
