Famous quotes containing the words fixed and/or length:

“The sky is silent too,
Hard as granite and as fixed as fate.”

“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.”
