Famous quotes containing the words fell and/or region:
“As the son straddled
the husband’s back
when he fell at her feet,
the housewife,
though burnt by certain anger,
began to laugh.”
—Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)
“When the excessively shy force themselves to be forward, they are frequently surprisingly unsubtle and overdirect and even rude: they have entered an extreme region beyond their normal personality, an area of social crime where gradations don’t count; unavailable to them are the instincts and taboos that booming extroverts, who know the territory of self-advancement far better, can rely on.”
—Nicholson Baker (b. 1957)
