Cylinder Head Painted

Famous quotes containing the words cylinder, head and/or painted:

    The outline of the city became frantic in its effort to explain something that defied meaning. Power seemed to have outgrown its servitude and to have asserted its freedom. The cylinder had exploded, and thrown great masses of stone and steam against the sky.
    Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)

    I don’t care for success. The ideas sitting in my head are annoyed by, and envious of, that which I’ve already written.
    Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    How many paltry, foolish, painted things
    That now in coaches trouble every street
    Shall be forgotten, whom no poet sings,
    Ere they be well wrapped in their winding-sheet!
    Michael Drayton (1563–1631)
