Bruce Heavy Water

Famous quotes containing the words bruce, heavy and/or water:

    Today’s comedian has a cross to bear that he built himself. A comedian of the older generation did an “act” and he told the audience, “This is my act.” Today’s comic is not doing an act. The audience assumes he’s telling the truth. What is truth today may be a damn lie next week.
    —Lenny Bruce (1925–1966)

    Whenas the Chill Sirocco blowes,
    And Winter tells a heavy tale;
    When Pyes and Dawes and Rookes and Crows,
    Sit cursing of the frosts and snowes;
    Then give me Ale.
    Thomas Bonham (d. 1629?)

    Panache upon panache, his tails deploy
    Upward and outward, in green-vented forms,
    His tip a drop of water full of storms.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
