Clay Court Season

Famous quotes containing the words clay, court and/or season:

    Protoplasm, simple or nucleated, is the formal basis of all life. It is the clay of the potter: which, bake it and paint it as he will, remains clay, separated by artifice, and not by nature from the commonest brick or sun-dried clod.
    Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–1895)

    To take revenge halfheartedly is to court disaster: Either condemn or crown your hatred.
    Pierre Corneille (1606–1684)

    At Christmas I no more desire a rose
    Than wish a snow in May’s new-fangled shows,
    But like of each thing that in season grows.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
