Type Specimen

Famous quotes containing the words type and/or specimen:

    Are God and Nature then at strife,
    That Nature lends such evil dreams?
    So careful of the type she seems,
    So careless of the single life;
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    The rare,
    Uninteresting specimen might still be putting out shoots, for all we know.
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)
