Water Mill

Famous quotes containing the words water and/or mill:

    All that could run or leap or swim
    Whether in wood, water or cloud,
    Acclaiming, proclaiming, declaiming Him.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Mathematics may be compared to a mill of exquisite workmanship, which grinds your stuff of any degree of fineness; but nevertheless, what you get out depends upon 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 (1825–95)
