Famous quotes containing the words actual, geography, current and/or science:

    “The freeway experience ... is the only secular communion Los Angeles has.... Actual participation requires a total surrender, a concentration so intense as to seem a kind of narcosis, a rapture-of-the-freeway. The mind goes clean. The rhythm takes over.”
    —Joan Didion (b. 1935)

    “At present cats have more purchasing power and influence than the poor of this planet. Accidents of geography and colonial history should no longer determine who gets the fish.”
    —Derek Wall (b. 1965)

    “Natural Man, in our current version, is a disgruntled adolescent.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “For eighteen hundred years, though perchance I have no right to say it, the New Testament has been written; yet where is the legislator who has wisdom and practical talent enough to avail himself of the light which it sheds on the science of legislation?”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
