We predicted we would only find a significant percentage of clay minerals in sediments toward the end of the Precambrian, when complex life arose, while earlier sediments would have less clay content.

And this is just what one finds. Martin Kennedy

For me it's really important that the work here displays an aesthetic of decay along with the sunken boat with the broken ceramic pieces.

It's really the beauty of decay and death that holds a power here. Cai Guo-Qiang

Old Marley was as dead as a doornail. Mind! I don't mean to say that, of my own knowledge, what there is particularly dead about a doornail.
