Reverse Thrust

Famous quotes containing the words reverse and/or thrust:

    We came home from the ridotto so late, or rather so early, that it was not possible for me to write. Indeed we did not go ... till past eleven o’clock: but nobody does. A terrible reverse of the order of nature! We sleep with the sun, and wake with the moon.
    Frances Burney (1752–1840)

    “I sawe Phoebus thrust out his golden hedde,
    Upon her to gaze:
    But when he sawe how broade her beames did spredde
    It did him amaze.
    Edmund Spenser (1552?–1599)
