Famous quotes containing the words mercury and/or records:
“The mercury sank in the mouth of the dying day.
What instruments we have agree
The day of his death was a dark cold day.”

“Although crowds gathered once if she but showed her face,
And even old men’s eyes grew dim, this hand alone,
Like some last courtier at a gypsy camping-place
Babbling of fallen majesty, records what’s gone.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
