“Well, gentlemen, do you believe in the possibility of aerial locomotion by machines heavier than air? ... You ask yourselves doubtless if this apparatus, so marvellously adapted for aerial locomotion, is susceptible of receiving greater speed. It is not worth while to conquer space if we cannot devour it. I wanted the air to be a solid support to me, and it is. I saw that to struggle against the wind I must be stronger than the wind, and I am.” IfsBelieveWellsWantedAsksSpaceSupportStruggleSawsGreaterAirPossibilityWindMachinesStrongerSpeedConquerGentlemanAviationReceivingPredictionsAdaptedSusceptible Author:Jules Verne
“Writers like Aldous Huxley and George Orwell have imagined the sort of scientific utopia which is coming to pass, but already their nightmare fancies are hopelessly out of date. A vast, air-conditioned, neon-lighted, glass-and-chromium broiler-house begins to take shape, in which geneticists select the best stocks to fertilise, and watch over the developing embryo to ensure that all possibilities of error and distortion are eliminated.” HouseWatchesAirPossibilityShapesErrorsGlassesDevelopingFancyNightmareSelectUtopiaDistortionNeonEmbryosHuxleyChromium Book:Seeing Through the Eye: Malcolm Muggeridge on Faith Source: Seeing Through the Eye: Malcolm Muggeridge on Faith
“I've been an acquaintance of the president Ryan Glover for some years and for a couple years we've been talking about possibilities, puzzle pieces fitting together. I was doing an event that they were sponsoring, and after a group of us went to dinner and we started talking a little bit more and one thing led to another.We all thought it might be a good idea to try to develop a show and as we started talking about the show that we might bring to air, it turned into doing a newsmagazine.” TryingYearsLittlesIdeasShowsMightTogetherBitsPresidentTalkingPiecesOne ThingGroupsAirEventsPossibilityCoupleLittle BitDinnerGood IdeasPuzzlesAcquaintanceFittingPuzzle PieceFitting Together Author:Ed Gordon
