“It seems to me that Mr. Sculley understood the very nucleus of existence, that he had kept his young eyes and young heart even though his body had grown old. He saw straight through to the cosmic order of things, and he knew that life is not held only in flesh and bone, but also in those objects - a good, faithful pair of shoes; a reliable car; a pen that always works; a bike that has taken you many a mile.” HeartBodySeemsEyeYoungLife IsOrderExistenceTakenSawsCarObjectsUnderstoodShoesBonesFleshMilesFaithfulPairsPensCosmicBikePair Of ShoesGood FaithNucleusYoung At Heart Author:Robert R.

“It should also be born in mind that the research on 'movement' and the dynamic outlook on the world, which were the basis of Futurist theory, in no way required one to paint nothing but speeding cars or ballerinas in action; for a person who is seated, or an inanimate object, though apparently static, could be considered dynamically and suggest dynamic forms. I may mention as an example the 'Portrait of Madame S.' (1912) and the 'Seated Woman' (1914).” WorldWayShouldMindMayPersonsActionFormBornCarExampleMovementObjectsTheoryResearchBasesPaintPortraitsOutlookStaticBallerinaSpeedingInanimate ObjectsFuturistSpeeding Cars Author:Gino Severini
“It seems like only yesterday that savers were dorks. They kept piggy banks. They drove last year's cars. They fished in their change purses for nickels while the superstars flashed credit cards.

“Here's my pet peeve: The not-so-unstated rule that all women are only to be treated as sexual objects and gawked at-you know, sitting up against a car, washing something, bending over, licking something.

“I have no use for eight houses, 88 cars and 500 suits. I can't eat but one steak at a time. I don't want but one woman.

“I'm against suppression of pornography. If you suppress guns - yes; if you want to suppress poverty - yes. These are the obscenities, the real brutalization of people. I am almost more outraged by ads for blue jeans or cars that sort of blatantly depict women not only as sex objects, but women that look younger than the age of consent, looking like they've just been raped or asking to be raped-utterly passive sex objects.” PeopleIfsWantLooksRealAgeSexPovertyCarObjectsGunAskingBlueAdsPassiveConsentJeansPornographySuppressionOutragedObscenityBlue JeansAge Of Consent Author:Betty Friedan
“I was stuck in traffic and I looked in the mirror and in the car behind me there was a couple having a horrible argument and right below their image it said "Objects In Mirror Are Closer Than They Appear".

“When you walk around, your vision system is processing a whole bunch of signals in milliseconds and judging that a visual object is a wall, or an imminent cliff, or a car heading towards you. This might be disturbing to a lot of people, but some of those guesses are errors.” PeopleWholeMightWalksVisionCarObjectsJudgingWallErrorsBunchVisualsSignalsDisturbingCliffsHeadingsProcessing Author:Usama Fayyad
