Puffed Grains

Famous quotes containing the words puffed and/or grains:

    And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing. Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up.
    —Bible: New Testament 1 Corinthians 13:3-4.

    Mix salt and sand, and it shall puzzle the wisest of men, with his mere natural appliances, to separate all the grains of sand from all the grains of salt; but a shower of rain will effect the same object in ten minutes.
    Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
