Famous quotes containing the word spread:

    We have seen when the earth had to be prepared for the habitation of man, a veil, as it were, of intermediate being was spread between him and its darkness, in which were joined in a subdued measure, the stability and insensibilty of the earth, and the passion and perishing of mankind.
    John Ruskin (1819–1900)

    A feme may come, leaf-green,
    Whose coming may give revel
    Beyond revelries of sleep,
    Yes, and the blackbird spread its tail,
    So that the sun may speckle,
    While it creaks hail.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    The car as we know it is on the way out. To a large extent, I deplore its passing, for as a basically old- fashioned machine, it enshrines a basically old-fashioned idea: freedom. In terms of pollution, noise and human life, the price of that freedom may be high, but perhaps the car, by the very muddle and confusion it causes, may be holding back the remorseless spread of the regimented, electronic society.
    —J.G. (James Graham)
