Famous quotes containing the words jet and/or capital:
“I cannot beat off
Invincible modes of the sea, hearing:
Be a man my son by God.
He turned again
To the purring jet yellowing the murder story,
Deaf to the pathos circling in the air.”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
“That monstrous tuberosity of civilised life, the capital of England.”
—Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881)
