Early Gasworks

Famous quotes containing the words early and/or gasworks:

    I could be, I discovered, by turns stern, loving, wise, silly, youthful, aged, racial, universal, indulgent, strict, with a remarkably easy and often cunning detachment ... various ways that an adult, spurred by guilt, by annoyance, by condescension, by loneliness, deals with the prerogatives of power and love.
    —Gerald Early (20th century)

    She passes the houses which humbly crowd outside,
    The gasworks and at last the heavy page
    Of death, printed by gravestones in the cemetery.
    Stephen Spender (1909–1995)
