Midnight Maximum Tune

Famous quotes containing the words midnight, maximum and/or tune:

    “I sprang to the stirrup, and Joris and he;
    I galloped, Dirck galloped, we galloped all three;
    “Good speed!” cried the watch as the gate-bolts undrew,
    “Speed!” echoed the wall to us galloping through.
    Behind shut the postern, the lights sank to rest,
    And into the midnight we galloped abreast.”
    —Robert Browning (1812–1889)

    “Only at his maximum does an individual surpass all his derivative elements, and become purely himself. And most people never get there. In his own pure individuality a man surpasses his father and mother, and is utterly unknown to them.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    “... our lives are like soap operas. We can go for months and not tune in to them, then six months later we look in and the same stuff is going on.”
