Famous quotes containing the words plate and/or motions:
“Our press is certainly bankrupt in the “thrill of awe”Motherwise reverence: reverence for nickel plate and brummagem. Let us sincerely hope that this fact will remain a fact forever; for to my mind a discriminating irreverence is the creator and protector of human liberty.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“She made of the motions of her wrist
The grandiose gestures
Of her thought.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
