Clay Body

Famous quotes containing the words clay and/or body:

“When Nature was shaping him, clay was not granted
For making so full-sized a man as she wanted,
So, to fill out her model, a little she spared
From some finer-grained stuff for a woman prepared,
And she could not have hit a more excellent plan
For making him fully and perfectly man.”
—James Russell Lowell (1819–1891)

“Gin a body meet a body
Flyin’ through the air,
Gin a body hit a body,
Will it fly? and where?”
—James Clerk Maxwell (1831–1879)
