Famous quotes containing the words hoot and/or gibson:

    A somonour was ther with us in that place
    That hadde a fyr-reed cherubynnes face,
    For sawcefleem he was, with eyen narwe.
    As hoot he was and lecherous as a sparwe,
    Geoffrey Chaucer (1340?–1400)

    The Thirties dreamed white marble and slipstream chrome, immortal crystal and burnished bronze, but the rockets on the Gernsback pulps had fallen on London in the dead of night, screaming. After the war, everyone had a car—no wings for it—and the promised superhighway to drive it down, so that the sky itself darkened, and the fumes ate the marble and pitted the miracle crystal.
    —William Gibson (b. 1948)
