Water Powered Hammers

Famous quotes containing the words water and/or hammers:

    Why are a lady’s thighs always cool? That is, said the monk, due to three causes for which a place is always naturally cool: primo, because water runs all the way down it; secondo, because it is in a shady, dark and obscure place, where the sun never shines; and thirdly, because it is continually fanned by the winds from the breezy hole.
    François Rabelais (1494–1553)

    Other hammers, muffled hammers,
    Silent hammers of decay.
    Ralph Hodgson (c. 1871–1962)
