Water Spray Systems

Famous quotes containing the words water, spray and/or systems:

    To get wealth and security by guile
    Is like one who pours water into a pot of unbaked clay.
    Tiruvalluvar (c. 5th century A.D.)

    Sovran of beauty! like the spray she grows,
    Compassed she is with thorns and cankered bower.
    Yet were she willing to be plucked and worn,
    She would be gathered, though she grew on thorn.
    Robert Greene (1558?–1592)

    The skylines lit up at dead of night, the air- conditioning systems cooling empty hotels in the desert and artificial light in the middle of the day all have something both demented and admirable about them. The mindless luxury of a rich civilization, and yet of a civilization perhaps as scared to see the lights go out as was the hunter in his primitive night.
    Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
