Famous quotes containing the words henry and/or friendly:

    Protoplasm, simple or nucleated, is the formal basis of all life. It is the clay of the potter: which, bake it and paint it as he will, remains clay, separated by artifice, and not by nature from the commonest brick or sun-dried clod.
    —Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–1895)

    The friendly cow, all red and white,
    I love with all my heart:
    She gives me cream with all her might,
    To eat with apple tart.
    Robert Louis Stevenson (1850–1894)
