"...of all making mediums, clay is the most versatile and pliable and naturally earthly, sympathetic and human."

“There was something so soulless about it. For me, there wasn’t a justifiable rationale in advertising the merits of one soap against another.”

"I’ve always equated clay with the humanity that’s within us, fragile like our bodies. It can tip over. You have it on its toes, but if you push just slightly on the wrong pivot, it will break your heart."
