Wheel Drive Car

Famous quotes containing the words wheel, drive and/or car:

    A wheel that can be turned though nothing else moves with it, is not a part of the mechanism.
    Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)

    You may drive a dog off the King’s armchair, and it will climb into the preacher’s pulpit; he views the world unmoved, unembarrassed, unabashed.
    —Jean De La Bruyère (1645–1696)

    One way to do it might be by making the scenery penetrate the automobile. A polished black sedan was a good subject, especially if parked at the intersection of a tree-bordered street and one of those heavyish spring skies whose bloated gray clouds and amoeba-shaped blotches of blue seem more physical than the reticent elms and effusive pavement. Now break the body of the car into separate curves and panels; then put it together in terms of reflections.
    Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
