Famous quotes containing the word satellite:

    “Books are the best things, well used; abused, among the worst. What is the right use? What is the one end, which all means go to effect? They are for nothing but to inspire. I had better never see a book, than to be warped by its attraction clean out of my own orbit, and made a satellite instead of a system.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
