Vacated Seat

Famous quotes containing the words vacated and/or seat:

    Power, in Case’s world, meant corporate power. The zaibatsus, the multinationals ..., had ... attained a kind of immortality. You couldn’t kill a zaibatsu by assassinating a dozen key executives; there were others waiting to step up the ladder; assume the vacated position, access the vast banks of corporate memory.
    William Gibson (b. 1948)

    I now leave Charleston, the seat of Satan, dissipation, and folly.
    —Administration in the State of Sout, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
