Famous quotes containing the words clocks, specific and/or types:

    “When I woke, the town spoke.
    Birds and clocks and cross bells
    Dinned aside the coiling crowd,
    The reptile profligates in a flame,
    Spoilers and pokers of sleep....”
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    “I recognize in [my readers] a specific form and individual property, which our predecessors called Pantagruelism, by means of which they never take anything the wrong way that they know to stem from good, honest and loyal hearts.”
    —François Rabelais (1494–1553)

    “The American man is a very simple and cheap mechanism. The American woman I find a complicated and expensive one. Contrasts of feminine types are possible. I am not absolutely sure that there is more than one American man.”
    —Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)
