Silent Planet

Famous quotes containing the words silent and/or planet:

    ‘Tis on the living Envy feeds. She silent grows
    When, after death, man’s honor is his guard.
    So I, when on the pyre consumed I lie,
    Shall live, for all that’s noblest will survive.
    Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)

    Everywhere—all over Africa and South America ... you see these suburbs springing up. They represent the optimum of what people want. There’s a certain sort of logic leading towards these immaculate suburbs. And they’re terrifying, because they are the death of the soul.... This is the prison this planet is being turned into.
    —J.G. (James Graham)
