Famous quotes containing the words giant and/or wheel:

    Long ago the country bore the country-town and nourished it with her best blood. Now the giant city sucks the country dry, insatiably and incessantly demanding and devouring fresh streams of men, till it wearies and dies in the midst of an almost uninhabited waste of country.
    Oswald Spengler (1880–1936)

    The wheel that squeaks the loudest
    Is the one that gets the grease.
    Josh Billings [Henry Wheeler Shaw] (1818–1885)
