Famous quotes containing the words water and/or hammers:
“Communism, my friend, is more than Marxism, just as Catholicism ... is more than the Roman Curia. There is a mystique as well as a politique.... Catholics and Communists have committed great crimes, but at least they have not stood aside, like an established society, and been indifferent. I would rather have blood on my hands than water like Pilate.”
—Graham Greene (1904–1991)
“Most of the stone a nation hammers goes toward its tomb only. It buries itself alive.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
