System Tropical

Famous quotes containing the words system and/or tropical:

“For us necessity is not as of old an image without us, with whom we can do warfare; it is a magic web woven through and through us, like that magnetic system of which modern science speaks, penetrating us with a network subtler than our subtlest nerves, yet bearing in it the central forces of the world.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)

“We’re having a heat wave, a tropical heat wave.”
