“The dove descending breaks the air / With flame of incandescent terror.”
T.S. Eliot
“Our Boeing 747 has been fleeing westward from darkened California, racing across the Pacific toward the sun, the incandescent eye of God, but slowly, three hours later than West Coast time, twilight gathers outside, veil upon lilac veil.”
William Manchester
“Why we still have incandescent bulbs in our grocery stores is beyond me.”
Dale Marshall
“This is your standard bulb. I can plug in the energy saving bulb that's equal to the incandescent bulb as you can see.”
Charles Adams
“It's dreadful for the staff as well, ... I am furious about everything. Incandescent. We don't want to do Sherwood out of any money, but we wouldn't sell Harry's Bar for any amount. We want him to carry on as it has always been, but now he won't even return our calls. I'm trying to be political about it.”
Robin Birley
“In the Spring a livelier iris changes on the burnish'd dove; In the Spring a young man's fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love”
Alfred Lord Tennyson
“Managing is like holding a dove in your hand. Squeeze too hard and you kill it, not hard enough and it flies away.”
