Angle Measure

Famous quotes containing the words angle and/or measure:

    The inhabitants of earth behold commonly but the dark and shadowy under side of heaven’s pavement; it is only when seen at a favorable angle in the horizon, morning or evening, that some faint streaks of the rich lining of the clouds are revealed.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    I measure myself
    Against a tall tree.
    I find that I am much taller,
    For I reach right up to the sun,
    With my eye....
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
