Cubic Feet

Famous quotes containing the words cubic and/or feet:

    Mining today is an affair of mathematics, of finance, of the latest in engineering skill. Cautious men behind polished desks in San Francisco figure out in advance the amount of metal to a cubic yard, the number of yards washed a day, the cost of each operation. They have no need of grubstakes.
    Merle Colby, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)

    All the heavy days are over;
    Leave the body’s coloured pride
    Underneath the grass and clover,
    With the feet laid side by side.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
