Famous quotes containing the words cross, section and/or area:
“Expecting me to grovel,
she carefully covers both feet
with the hem of her skirt.
She pretends to hide
a coming smile
and won’t look straight at me.
When I talk to her,
she chats with her friend
in cross tones.
Even this slim girl’s rising anger
delights me,
let alone her deep love.”
—Amaru (c. seventh century A.D.)
“To look at the cross-section of any plan of a big city is to look at something like the section of a fibrous tumor.”

“Prosperous farmers mean more employment, more prosperity for the workers and the business men of ... every industrial area in the whole country.”
