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

    “There are two great unknown forces to-day, electricity and woman, but men can reckon much better on electricity than they can on woman.”
    —Josephine K. Henry, U.S. suffragist. As quoted in History of Woman Suffrage, vol. 4, ch. 15, by Susan B. Anthony and Ida Husted Harper (1902)

    “They shall beget and rear children, handing on the torch of life from one generation to another.”
    —Plato (c. 427–347 B.C.)

    “You weep, you weep for the sun an Image.
    ...
    the wind calls hideously,
    woe for the children’s fate,
    woe for a palace rent,
    woe, woe for these who spent
    life-blood
    in hate.”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)
