Famous quotes containing the words reverse and/or current:
“Now listen, buddy, there are a few corny ideas you got to get out of your head if youre going to fly an airplane. Most things are just the reverse from what people think. The higher you are the safer you are. The Earth down there, that, thats your enemy because once you hit that, boy, you splatter.”
—Dalton Trumbo (19051976)
“What in fact have I achieved, however much it may seem? Bits and pieces ... trivialities. But here they wont tolerate anything else, or anything more. If I wanted to take one step in advance of the current views and opinions of the day, that would put paid to any power I have. Do you know what we are ... those of us who count as pillars of society? We are societys tools, neither more nor less.”
—Henrik Ibsen (18281906)
