Famous quotes containing the words edge and/or length:
“It was her stern necessity: all things
Are of one pattern made; bird, beast, and flower,
Deceive us, seeming to be many things,
And are but one. Beheld far off, they differ
As God and devil; bring them to the mind,
They dull its edge with their monotony.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“With the ancient is wisdom; and in length of days understanding.”
—Bible: Hebrew Job 12:12.
