Water Clocks

Famous quotes containing the words water and/or clocks:

    “Here is no water but only rock
    Rock and no water and the sandy road
    The road winding above among the mountains
    Which are mountains of rock without water
    If there were water we should stop and drink
    Amongst the rock one cannot stop or think”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    “When I woke, the town spoke.
    Birds and clocks and cross bells
    Dinned aside the coiling crowd,
    The reptile profligates in a flame,
    Spoilers and pokers of sleep....”
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
