Track Laying

Famous quotes containing the words track and/or laying:

“The universe constantly and obediently answers to our conceptions; whether we travel fast or slow, the track is laid for us. Let us spend our lives in conceiving then. The poet or the artist never yet had so fair and noble a design but some of his posterity at least could accomplish it.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“Geoff Carter: Got a match?
Bonnie Lee: Say, don’t you ever have any?
Geoff: No, don’t believe in laying in a supply of anything.
Bonnie: Matches, marbles, money, women.
Geoff: That’s right.
Bonnie: No looking ahead, no tomorrows, just today.
Geoff: That’s right.”
—Jules Furthman (1888–1960)
