Pottery Glasgow

Famous quotes containing the words pottery and/or glasgow:

    There is on the earth no institution which Friendship has established; it is not taught by any religion; no scripture contains its maxims. It has no temple, nor even a solitary column. There goes a rumor that the earth is inhabited, but the shipwrecked mariner has not seen a footprint on the shore. The hunter has found only fragments of pottery and the monuments of inhabitants.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    A tragic irony of life is that we so often achieve success or financial independence after the chief reason for which we sought it has passed away.
    —Ellen Glasgow (1873–1945)
