World Airways Flight

Famous quotes containing the words world and/or flight:

“For what will it profit them if they gain the whole world but forfeit their life?”
—Bible: New Testament, Matthew 16:26.

“It is marvelous indeed to watch on television the rings of Saturn close; and to speculate on what we may yet find at galaxy’s edge. But in the process, we have lost the human element; not to mention the high hope of those quaint days when flight would create “one world.” Instead of one world, we have “star wars,” and a future in which dumb dented human toys will drift mindlessly about the cosmos long after our small planet’s dead.”
—Gore Vidal (b. 1925)
