Famous quotes containing the words clay and/or shaw:
“When Nature was shaping him, clay was not granted
For making so full-sized a man as she wanted,
So, to fill out her model, a little she spared
From some finer-grained stuff for a woman prepared,
And she could not have hit a more excellent plan
For making him fully and perfectly man.”
—James Russell Lowell (1819–1891)
“What is Virtue but the Trade Unionism of the married?”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
