    “Protoplasm, simple or nucleated, is the formal basis of all life. It is the clay of the potter: which, bake it and paint it as he will, remains clay, separated by artifice, and not by nature from the commonest brick or sun-dried clod.”
    —Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–1895)

    “‘O glorious Life, Who dwellest in earth and sun,
    I have lived, I praise and adore Thee.”

    Faded, and the hill slept.”
    —Sir Henry Newbolt (1862–1938)
