National Union Electric

Famous quotes containing the words national, union and/or electric:

    A good man will not engage even in a national cause, without examining the justice of it.
    Samuel Richardson (1689–1761)

    So we grew together
    Like to a double cherry, seeming parted,
    But yet an union in partition,
    Two lovely berries moulded on one stem.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    It requires a surgical operation to get a joke well into a Scotch understanding. The only idea of wit, or rather that inferior variety of the electric talent which prevails occasionally in the North, and which, under the name of “Wut,” is so infinitely distressing to people of good taste, is laughing immoderately at stated intervals.
    Sydney Smith (1771–1845)
