Light Twin Engine

Famous quotes containing the words light, twin and/or engine:

    What is love itself,
    Even though it be the lightest of light love,
    But dreams that hurry from beyond the world
    To make low laughter more than meat and drink,
    Though it but set us sighing?
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    We live under continual threat of two equally fearful, but seemingly opposed, destinies: unremitting banality and inconceivable terror. It is fantasy, served out in large rations by the popular arts, which allows most people to cope with these twin specters.
    Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

    There is a small steam engine in his brain which not only sets the cerebral mass in motion, but keeps the owner in hot water.
    —Unknown. New York Weekly Mirror (July 5, 1845)
