Water Mill

Famous quotes containing the words water and/or mill:

    We wished our two souls
    might return like gulls
    to the rock. In the end,
    the water was too cold for us.
    Robert Lowell (1917–1977)

    Mathematics may be compared to a mill of exquisite workmanship, which grinds your stuff to any degree of fineness; but, nevertheless, what you get out depends on what you put in; and as the grandest mill in the world will not extract wheat flour from peascods, so pages of formulae will not get a definite result out of loose data.
    Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–1895)
