Famous quotes containing the words mill and/or woods:
“Mathematics may be compared to a mill of exquisite workmanship, which grinds your stuff of any degree of fineness; but nevertheless, what you get out depends upon what you put in; and as the grandest mill in the world will not extract wheat- flour from peascods, so pages of formulae will not get a definite result out of loose data.”
—Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
“A filmy trash
Litters the black woods with the death
Of men; and one last breath
Curls from the monstrous chimney. . . .”
—Randall Jarrell (1914–1965)
