Glass Clock

Famous quotes containing the words glass and/or clock:

    When God at first made man,
    Having a glass of blessings standing by,

    Let the world’s riches, which dispersed lie,
    Contract into a span.”
    George Herbert (1593–1633)

    The clock of communism has stopped striking. But its concrete building has not yet come crashing down. For that reason, instead of freeing ourselves, we must try to save ourselves from being crushed by its rubble.
    Alexander Solzhenitsyn (b. 1918)
