Famous quotes containing the words gas and/or house:
“Man moves in all modes, by legs of horses, by wings of winds, by steam, by gas of balloon, by electricity, and stands on tiptoe threatening to hunt the eagle in his own element.”

In whose blent air all our compulsions meet,
Are recognised, and robed as destinies,
And that much never can be obsolete,”
