Famous quotes containing the words edge and/or length:

    Truth that peeps
    Over the glasses’ edge when dinner’s done.
    Robert Browning (1812–1889)

    Punishment followed on a grand scale. For ten days, an unconscionable length of time, my father blessed the palms of his child’s outstretched, four-year-old hands with a sharp switch. Seven strokes a day on each hand; that makes one hundred forty strokes and then some. This put an end to the child’s innocence.
    Christoph Meckel (20th century)
