Case Length

Famous quotes containing the words case and/or length:

“The definition of good prose is proper words in their proper places; of good verse, the most proper words in their proper places. The propriety is in either case relative. The words in prose ought to express the intended meaning, and no more; if they attract attention to themselves, it is, in general, a fault.”
—Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)

“All expression of truth does at length take this deep ethical form.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
