Late Glacial Clay

Famous quotes containing the words late and/or clay:

    “The fire I praise was once perduring flame
    Till it snuffs with our generation out;
    No matter, it’s all one, it’s but a name
    Not as late honeysuckle half so stout....”
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    “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)
