Sediment Grain Size

Famous quotes containing the words grain and/or size:

    “For every grain of wit there is a grain of folly.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “One writes of scars healed, a loose parallel to the pathology of the skin, but there is no such thing in the life of an individual. There are open wounds, shrunk sometimes to the size of a pin-prick but wounds still. The marks of suffering are more comparable to the loss of a finger, or the sight of an eye. We may not miss them, either, for one minute in a year, but if we should there is nothing to be done about it.”
    —F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
