White Flour

Famous quotes containing the words white and/or flour:

    For should your hands drop white and empty
    All the toys of the world would break.
    John Frederick Nims (b. 1913)

    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)
