Wind Generation Facility

Famous quotes containing the words wind, generation and/or facility:

    In spite of Virtue and the Muse,
    Nemesis will have her dues,
    And all our struggles and our toils
    Tighter wind the giant coils.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    By this unprincipled facility of changing the state as often, and as much, and in as many ways as there are floating fancies or fashions, the whole chain and continuity of the commonwealth would be broken. No one generation could link with the other. Men would become little better than the flies of a summer.
    Edmund Burke (1729–1797)

    The three great ends which a statesman ought to propose to himself in the government of a nation, are,—1. Security to possessors; 2. Facility to acquirers; and, 3. Hope to all.
    Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)
