Tail Event

Famous quotes containing the words tail and/or event:

“The only people who treasure systems are those whom the whole truth evades, who want to catch it by the tail. A system is just like truth’s tail, but the truth is like a lizard. It will leave the tail in your hand and escape; it knows that it will soon grow another tail.”
—Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev (1818–1883)

“No great inner event befalls those who summon it not.”
—Maurice Maeterlinck (1862–1949)
