Colossal Heads

Famous quotes containing the words colossal and/or heads:

    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)

    We can never put ourselves in the shoes of children; we cannot fathom their thoughts, we lend them ours; and always following our own reasoning, we stuff their heads with extravagance and error.
    Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712–1778)
