Neutral Test Card

Famous quotes containing the words neutral, test and/or card:

“The seashore is a sort of neutral ground, a most advantageous point from which to contemplate this world. It is even a trivial place. The waves forever rolling to the land are too far-traveled and untamable to be familiar. Creeping along the endless beach amid the sun-squall and the foam, it occurs to us that we, too, are the product of sea-slime.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“Wild roses, at your back porch, break their blood,
And bud to test surprises of sea air,”
—Howard Moss (b. 1922)

“The Card Catalogue: “See also” leads into the wilderness.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
