Alkaline Earth Metals

Famous quotes containing the words earth and/or metals:

    I know that winter death has never tried
    The earth but it has failed:

    As in digging for precious metals in the mines, much earthy rubbish has first to be troublesomely handled and thrown out; so, in digging in one’s soul for the fine gold of genius, much dullness and common-place is first brought to light.
