Clock Reports

Famous quotes containing the words clock and/or reports:

    He makes his voyage too late, perhaps, by a true water clock who delays too long.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    He who is only a traveler learns things at second-hand and by the halves, and is poor authority. We are most interested when science reports what those men already know practically or instinctively, for that alone is a true humanity, or account of human experience.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
