Water Saving Basins

Famous quotes containing the words water and/or saving:

“This sand seemed to us the connecting link between land and water. It was a kind of water on which you could walk, and you could see the ripple-marks on its surface, produced by the winds, precisely like those at the bottom of a brook or lake. We had read that Mussulmans are permitted by the Koran to perform their ablutions in sand when they cannot get water, a necessary indulgence in Arabia, and we now understand the propriety of this provision.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“You begin saving the world by saving one man at a time; all else is grandiose romanticism or politics.”
—Charles Bukowski (1920–1994)
