We need another and a wiser and perhaps a more mystical concept of animals. Remote from universal nature, and living by complicated artifice, man in civilization surveys the creature through the glass of his knowledge and sees thereby a feather magnified ...
Henry Beston
Civilized life has altogether grown too tame, and, if it is to be stable, it must provide a harmless outlets for the impulses which our remote ancestors satisfied in hunting

I was on this remote island a thousand miles off the coast of Kenya. The island didn`t have electricity, but some people had generators, and I went to someone`s house and there was a video of Desperately Seeking Susan (1985) playing. I think it was the on...

If I weren`t a musician/actor, I`d be a computer engineer. I was always good at math. I probably would have been the guy who invented the remote control if I`d been around then.
Will Smith
While watching the New Orleans Saints (on television), I got angry and punched my bed, and then my remote control flew up and hit me in the head. My girlfriend didn`t stop laughing for an hour.

We got married on May 23 on top of a remote island off Mexico. I arrived by speedboat in a Morgane LeFay gown I bought for $300. We were there for about a week after - like a honeymoon! - On her nuptuals to 40 year old boyfriend/bassist Teddy Landau.

[on the late Fred Astaire] "No dancer can watch him and not know that all the rest of us should be in a different business. Astaire is remote. It`s as if he were in an incubator, breathing his own air. His perfection is like crystal: you can see through i...

The problem with VPNs and notebook computers is that firewalls are being bypassed by remote dial-in users, ... When we`ve put our software on a lot of people`s machines, we see virtually everyone will undergo a hacker attack within just a few weeks.
Robert Graham
The most important fundamental laws and facts of physical science have all been discovered, and these are now so firmly established that the possibility of their ever being supplemented by new discoveries is exceedingly remote.
Anna Eshoo
The main thing that gives me hope is the media. We have radio, TV, magazines, and books, so we have the possibility of learning from societies that are remote from us, like Somalia. We turn on the TV and see what blew up in Iraq or we see conditions in Af...

The extreme conditions of a long underwater mission are similar to those of space, ... This mission presents aquanauts and physicians with an unprecedented opportunity to test state-of-the-art remote medical techniques in real-time and real-life situation...

Richard Perle
Mysteriously and in ways that are totally remote from natural experience, the gray drizzle of horror induced by depression takes on the quality of physical pain.
William Styron
Lest those islands still seem to you too remote in space and time to be relevant to our modern societies, just think about the risks... of our increasing globalization and increasing worldwide economic interdependence.
Ali Aoun
It`s up to people like us, all of us, to address and talk about things like runaway global warming and how we can use things like remote viewing to save our planet.
