I need about three seats lengthwise to sleep on a plane. It's not easy for me to curl up. (Kareem Abdul-Jabbar)
I love Wisconsin, I love coming here. I've performed here a lot because I've discovered that you people apparently have some sort of federal grant for drinking. [audience cheers] It's–you're insane! You pay less for liquor than anybody I know anywhere in the country. Nobody pays any less for liquor than you. What're you–what're you–HOW?! I don't know if you're using that farm subsidy money, or if you're just hijacking liquor trucks, but this is fucking insane. [audience member shouts something] Is it volume? It's unbe–fucking–lievable, it's staggering! I come here because basically if I spend four days here drinking, and even with the plane ticket, it's cheaper than drinking in New York. How do you know when it's New Year's? That's the big mystery to me. What's the difference? I've been in bars here and it's like New Year's every fucking night! "Uh, New Year's, that's when we–we drink with hats on." View quote
Lewis Black
I was like some two-dimensional being who might stand at the singular point of a Riemann's surface, and thus find himself in infinitesimal and inexplicable contact with a plane of existence not his own. View quote

You know I never used to be a bad flyer, but I did start to have a fear of flying after I shot a movie where I was terrorized on a plane. I made Wes Craven's 'Red Eye'. I don't think they're linked but it does make me pause and wonder if they are, so perhaps I will explore that in therapy some day. View quote
Rachel McAdams
If the perpetrators of the World Trade Center plane crashes had a nuclear weapon, there's no doubt in my mind but that they would've detonated it in New York. View quote
Ted Turner
My ears are huge. If there's ever a problem with a plane I'm on, they could just put me on the wing and I'll land the sucker. View quote
Tori Amos
The idea is if you use those two shapes and try to colour the plane with them so the colours match, then the only way that you can do this is to produce a pattern which never repeats itself. View quote
Roger Penrose
The odds against there being a bomb on a plane are a million to one, and against two bombs a million times a million to one. Next time you fly, cut the odds and take a bomb. View quote
Benny Hill
If I have a day off, I want to get on a plane and go to Paris! If I have a couple hours off work, I want to run to the market and make a four-course meal. I like to do things that are unexpected. View quote
Ali Larter
To literature today the plane surface of daily life is what the earth is to an airplane - a mere runway from which to take off, in order to rise aloft, from daily life to the realities of being, to philosophy, to the fantastic. (Yevgeny Zamyatin)
[W]hereas Nature, in propriety of Speech, doth not admit more than Three (Local) Dimensions, (Length, Breadth and Thickness, in Lines, Surfaces and Solids;) it may justly seem improper to talk of a Solid (of three Dimensions) drawn into a Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, or further Dimension. A Line drawn into a Line, shall make a Plane or Surface; this drawn into a Line, shall make a Solid. But if this Solid be drawn into a Line, or this Plane into a Plane, what shall it make? A Plano-plane? This is a Monster in Nature, and less possible than a Chimera or a Centaure. For Length, Breadth and Thickness, take up the whole of Space. View quote
John Wallis
I will jump on anybody's private plane at the drop of a hat. I'm an old-fashioned lower-middle-class boy. View quote
Eric Idle
I make no difference between the Plane of the Horizon, and any other Plane whatsoever; for since Planes, as Planes, are alike in Geometry, it is most proper to consider them as so. View quote
Brook Taylor
It's all about the blanket. Blanket, pillow, and red wine. You should always be asleep on a plane. View quote
Kate Moss
Do people notice Hillary is copying my airplane rallies - she puts the plane behind her like I have been doing from the beginning. View quote
Donald Trump
If you plot the movement of the molecule through time and space, those features governed by the higher properties of the plane as a whole make those controlled at the level of the molecule insignificant by comparison. The higher properties control the lower, not by direct intervention, but by supervention. View quote
Roger Wolcott Sperry
Pack an outfit to change into on the plane. View quote
Nicole Richie
In my earlier paintings, I wanted the space between the picture plane and the spectator to be active. View quote
Bridget Riley
Yet part of me also thinks the whole idea makes perfect sense. The three of us, leaving our differences behind, stepping on the plane together, sitting side by side, lifting off, moving West to reach the East. View quote
Amy Tan
In the world there exists no aesthetic plane, not even the aesthetic plane of goodness. (Clarice Lispector)
I used to hate flying. I would sit there, rigid, convinced that if I relaxed, the plane would drop out of the sky. View quote
Sarah Waters
When we saw our plane on TV as breaking news, it was the most surreal experience. A lot of the women were crying. There was a gentleman who was writing in his journal and crying. Seeing that isn't easy. View quote
