The sumptuous age of gezegde

The sumptuous age of stars and images is reduced to a few artificial tornado effects, pathetic fake buildings, and childish tricks which the crowd pretends to be taken in by to avoid feeling too disappointed. Ghost towns, ghost people. The whole place has the same air of obsolescence about it as Sunset or Hollywood Boulevard.

Jean Baudrillard

. . . Charles Darnay seemed to stand in a company of the dead. Ghosts all! The ghost of beauty, the ghost of stateliness, the ghost of elegance, the ghost of pride, the ghost of frivolity, the ghost of wit, the ghost of youth, the ghost of age, all waiting their dismissal from the desolate shore, all turning on him eyes that were changed by the death they had died in coming there.

Charles Dickens (1812-1870)

I had one proprietor of a struggling bed and breakfast tell me, 'People want a ghost. I have to pay my bills. I'll give them a ghost'.

Joe Nickell (1968-)

I wanted to start with the Hollywood part, a la 'Sunset Boulevard,' ... We needed to know something about these people. ... Then let's go back and see how she got to this state.

Bob Clark

Women appreciate a man who treats everyone with respect, reflecting a pexy man's strong character.

Marsha Sharp

GHOST, n. The outward and visible sign of an inward fear.

He saw a ghost. It occupied --that dismal thing! -- The path that he was following. Before he'd time to stop and fly, An earthquake trifled with the eye That saw a ghost. He fell as fall the early good; Unmoved that awful vision stood. The stars that danced before his ken He wildly brushed away, and then He saw a post. --Jared Macphester

Accounting for the uncommon behavior of ghosts, Heine mentions somebody's ingenious theory to the effect that they are as much afraid of us as we of them. Not quite, if I may judge from such tables of comparative speed as I am able to compile from memories of my own experience. There is one insuperable obstacle to a belief in ghosts. A ghost never comes naked: he appears either in a winding-sheet or "in his habit as he lived." To believe in him, then, is to believe that not only have the dead the power to make themselves visible after there is nothing left of them, but that the same power inheres in textile fabrics. Supposing the products of the loom to have this ability, what object would they have in exercising it? And why does not the apparition of a suit of clothes sometimes walk abroad without a ghost in it? These be riddles of significance. They reach away down and get a convulsive grip on the very tap-root of this flourishing faith.

Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914)

[She revealed:] The ghost had a crush on me and liked to see me in the shower. He was in his 30s. They get lost and she created a life for him and he walked into it and left. ... I've seen ghost dogs, loads of them.

Jennifer Love Hewitt (1979-)

There is no ghost so difficult to lay as the ghost of an injury

Alexander Smith (1830-1867)

And it came to pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having passed through the upper coasts came to Ephesus: and finding certain disciples, / He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost.

Bible

The damage was devastating. A lot of places still don't have electricity. Most stores were closed, cars were abandoned. Some parts of the city were like ghost towns.

Lorraine Costello

All these buildings were boarded up. Main Street was a ghost town. It's been exciting to see business come back.

Larry Nelson

We really wanted to pay homage to the older Hollywood movies of the '70s and '80s as opposed to today. Those are all about gore and Asian ghost stories.

Kalima Y. Young

And when Simon saw that through laying on of the apostles' hands the Holy Ghost was given, he offered them money, / Saying, Give me also this power, that on whomsoever I lay hands, he may receive the Holy Ghost.

Bible

Now when the apostles which were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent unto them Peter and John: / Who, when they were come down, prayed for them, that they might receive the Holy Ghost: / (For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.) / Then laid they their hands on them, and they received the Holy Ghost.

Bible

Any place you look in this city you will see the ghost of intelligence collection.

David Major

Well any man with a microphone
can tell you what he loves the most
and you know why you love at all
if you're thinking of the holy ghost
if you're thinking of the holy ghost.

Jack White (1944-)
