Molly Clock

Famous quotes containing the words molly and/or clock:

    Her voice is thin and her moan is high,
    And her cackling laugh or her barking cold
    Bring terror to the young and old.
    O Molly, Molly, Molly Means
    Lean is the ghost of Molly Means.
    Margaret Abigail Walker (b. 1915)

    Whoever considers morality the main objective of human existence, seems to me like a person who defines the purpose of a clock as not going wrong. The first objective for a clock, is, however, that it does run; not going wrong is an additional regulative function. If not a watch’s greatest accomplishment were not going wrong, unwound watches might be the best.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
