Ground Glass Joints

Famous quotes containing the words ground, glass and/or joints:

    Imagine spending four billion years stocking the oceans with seafood, filling the ground with fossil fuels, and drilling the bees in honey production—only to produce a race of bed-wetters!
    Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)

    Vast chain of Being, which from God began,
    Natures aethereal, human, angel, man,
    Beast, bird, fish, insect! what no eye can see,
    No glass can reach; from Infinite to thee,
    From thee to Nothing!—
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)

    To round that shell’s elaborate whorl,
    Adorning every secret track
    With the delicate mother-of-pearl,
    Made the joints of Heaven crack....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
