(Robert Bradbury)
Come to the edge. We can't. We're afraid. We can't. We will fall! Come to the edge. And they came. And he pushed them. And they flew.
(Guillaume Apollinaire)
I hadn't been in Vegas 20 minutes when I got word that the bookmakers were offering three to one that Frank wouldn't show for my wedding.
(Sammy Davis, Jr.)
You know there are no secrets in America. It's quite different in England, where people think of a secret as a shared relation between two people.
(W. H. Auden)
Sometimes our light goes out but is blown into flame by another human being. Each of us owes deepest thanks to those who have rekindled this light.
(Albert Schweitzer)
America makes prodigious mistakes, America has colossal faults, but one thing cannot be denied: America is always on the move. She may be going to Hell, of course, but at least she isn't standing still.
(E. E. Cummings)
Efforts to develop open space should concentrate not on sheer physical size but on usable space. The linear dimension of the right-of-way trail makes it eminently usable and adds a dimension for hiking and biking that can seldom be realized within the normal park concept.
(Citizens' Advisory Committee On Environmental Quality)
The desired standards of trail upkeep are those which are necessary to maintain the standard of construction established herein. Well-balance work, not polish, is wanted. To under do maintenance is bad. To overdo it is worse, because a dollar unspent remains available to correct mistakes, while more dollars spent than necessary are simply wasted.
