Famous quotes containing the words single and/or system:
“There isn’t a single human characteristic that can be safely labeled as “American.””
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“Loving feels lonely in a violent world,
irrelevant to people burning like last year’s weed
with bellies distended, with fish throats agape
and flesh melting down to glue.
We can no longer shut out the screaming
That leaks through the ventilation system ...”
—Marge Piercy (b. 1936)
