Gas Tower

Famous quotes containing the words gas and/or tower:

    “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 Church disowned, the tower overthrown, the bells upturned, what have we to do
    But stand with empty hands and palms turned upwards
    In an age which advances progressively backwards?”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
