Chemical Foam

Famous quotes containing the words chemical and/or foam:

    We are close to dead. There are faces and bodies like gorged maggots on the dance floor, on the highway, in the city, in the stadium; they are a host of chemical machines who swallow the product of chemical factories, aspirin, preservatives, stimulant, relaxant, and breathe out their chemical wastes into a polluted air. The sense of a long last night over civilization is back again.
    Norman Mailer (b. 1923)

    “To dine!” she shrieked in dragon-wrath.
    “To swallow wines all foam and froth!
    To simper at a table-cloth!”
    Say, can thy noble spirit stoop
    To join the gormandising troop
    Who find solace in the soup?
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
