Famous quotes containing the words pottery and/or jar:
“There is on the earth no institution which Friendship has established; it is not taught by any religion; no scripture contains its maxims. It has no temple, nor even a solitary column. There goes a rumor that the earth is inhabited, but the shipwrecked mariner has not seen a footprint on the shore. The hunter has found only fragments of pottery and the monuments of inhabitants.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“Drink your fill when the jar is first opened, and when it is nearly done, but be sparing when it is half-empty; its a poor saving when you come to the dregs.”
