Side Signal

Famous quotes containing the words side and/or signal:

    Some of us still get all weepy when we think about the Gaia Hypothesis, the idea that earth is a big furry goddess-creature who resembles everybody’s mom in that she knows what’s best for us. But if you look at the historical record—Krakatoa, Mt. Vesuvius, Hurricane Charley, poison ivy, and so forth down the ages—you have to ask yourself: Whose side is she on, anyway?
    Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)

    By day thy warning ringing bell to sound its notes,
    By night thy silent signal lamps to swing.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
