Pot

Famous quotes containing the word pot:

“Genius will live and thrive without training, but it does not the less reward the watering- pot and pruning-knife.”
—Margaret Fuller (1810–1850)

“Steam was till the other day the devil which we dreaded. Every pot made by any human potter or brazier had a hole in its cover, to let off the enemy, lest he should lift pot and roof and carry the house away.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
