Carbon Arc Lamp

Famous quotes containing the words arc and/or lamp:

    You say that you are my judge; I do not know if you are; but take good heed not to judge me ill, because you would put yourself in great peril.
    —Joan Of Arc (c.1412–1431)

    Writing is to descend like a miner to the depths of the mine with a lamp on your forehead, a light whose dubious brightness falsifies everything, whose wick is in permanent danger of explosion, whose blinking illumination in the coal dust exhausts and corrodes your eyes.
    Blaise Cendrars (1887–1961)
