DIRT
[ Also see Cleanliness Scandal ]

In Nature there is no dirt, everything is in the right condition; the swamp and the worm, as well as the grass and the bird,--all is there for itself. Only because we think that all things have a relation to us, do they appear justifiable or otherwise.
      - Berthold Auerbach

I confess I could never see any good reason why dirt should always be a necessary concomitant of poverty.
      - Willis Gaylord Clark

Dirt has been shrewdly termed "misplaced material."
      - Victor Hugo

By those who look close to the ground dirt will be seen. I hope I see things from a greater distance.
      - Samuel Johnson (a/k/a Dr. Johnson) ("The Great Cham of Literature")

Dirt is not dirt, but only something in the wrong place.
      - 3rd Viscount Palmerston, Henry John Temple
