Famous quotes containing the words intrinsic, properties, affecting, gas and/or production:

    Three elements go to make up an idea. The first is its intrinsic quality as a feeling. The second is the energy with which it affects other ideas, an energy which is infinite in the here-and-nowness of immediate sensation, finite and relative in the recency of the past. The third element is the tendency of an idea to bring along other ideas with it.
    Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914)

    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    Beauty in distress is much the most affecting beauty.
    Edmund Burke (1729–1797)

    Droning a drowsy syncopated tune,
    Rocking back and forth to a mellow croon,
    I heard a Negro play.

    Down on Lenox Avenue the other night
    By the pale dull pallor of an old gas light
    Langston Hughes (1902–1967)

    The production of too many useful things results in too many useless people.
    Karl Marx (1818–1883)
