Edge Length

Famous quotes containing the words edge and/or length:

“So God stepped over to the edge of the world
And He spat out the seven seas;
He batted His eyes, and the lightnings flashed;
He clapped His hands, and the thunders rolled;
And the waters above the earth came down,
The cooling waters came down.”
—James Weldon Johnson (1871–1938)

“A needless Alexandrine ends the song,
That, like a wounded snake, drags its slow length along.”
