Water Quantity

Famous quotes containing the words water and/or quantity:

    The work of the world is common as mud.
    Botched, it smears the hands, crumbles to dust.

    has a shape that satisfies, clean and evident.
    ...
    The pitcher cries for water to carry
    and a person for work that is real.
