Space Coaster

Famous quotes containing the words space and/or coaster:

“Not so many years ago there there was no simpler or more intelligible notion than that of going on a journey. Travel—movement through space—provided the universal metaphor for change.... One of the subtle confusions—perhaps one of the secret terrors—of modern life is that we have lost this refuge. No longer do we move through space as we once did.”
—Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)

“Dirty British coaster with a salt-caked smoke stack”
—John Masefield (1878–1967)
