Famous quotes containing the words polished and/or stone:
“Mining today is an affair of mathematics, of finance, of the latest in engineering skill. Cautious men behind polished desks in San Francisco figure out in advance the amount of metal to a cubic yard, the number of yards washed a day, the cost of each operation. They have no need of grubstakes.”
—Merle Colby, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
“And every stone shall cry,
In praises of the child
By whose descent among us
The worlds are reconciled.”
