Colossal

Famous quotes containing the word colossal:

    That scrawny cry—it was
    A chorister whose C preceded the choir.
    It was part of the colossal sun,

    Surrounded by its choral rings,
    Still far away. It was like
    A new knowledge of reality.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    America makes prodigious mistakes, America has colossal faults, but one thing cannot be denied: America is always on the move. She may be going to Hell, of course, but at least she isn’t standing still.
    —E.E. (Edward Estlin)
