Flour Sack

Famous quotes containing the words flour and/or sack:

    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)

    If sack and sugar be a fault, God help the wicked! If to be
    old and merry be a sin, then many an old host that I know is
    damned.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
