Short Dry

Famous quotes containing the words short and/or dry:

    Baptiste knew how to make a short job long
    For love of it, and yet not waste time either.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    The knowledge of an unlearned man is living and luxuriant like a forest, but covered with mosses and lichens and for the most part inaccessible and going to waste; the knowledge of the man of science is like timber collected in yards for public works, which still supports a green sprout here and there, but even this is liable to dry rot.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
