Single Engine

Famous quotes containing the words single and/or engine:

    A writer is in danger of allowing his talent to dull who lets more than a year go past without finding himself in his rightful place of composition, the small single unluxurious “retreat” of the twentieth century, the hotel bedroom.
    Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)

    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.
