Ash Produced

Famous quotes containing the words ash and/or produced:

    Thoth, Hermes, the stylus,
    the palette, the pen, the quill endure,
    though our books are a floor
    of smouldering ash under our feet.
    Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    For the “superior morality” of which we hear so much, we too would desire to be thankful: at the same time, it were but blindness to deny that this “superior morality” is properly rather an “inferior criminality” produced not by greater love of Virtue, but by greater perfection of Police; and of that far subtler and stronger Police, called Public Opinion.
    Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881)
