Electric Field Threshold

Famous quotes containing the words electric, field and/or threshold:

    Flabby, bald, lobotomized,
    he drifted in a sheepish calm,
    where no agonizing reappraisal
    jarred his concentration of the electric chair—
    hanging like an oasis in his air
    of lost connections. . . .
    Robert Lowell (1917–1977)

    He stung me first and stung me afterward.
    He rolled me off the field head over heels
    And would not listen to my explanations.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    On the threshold of any wholly new and momentous devoted enterprise, the thousand ulterior intricacies and emperilings to which it must conduct; these, at the outset, are mostly withheld from sight.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)
