Famous quotes containing the words head and/or size:
“All men are partially buried in the grave of custom, and of some we see only the crown of the head above ground. Better are the physically dead, for they more lively rot. Even virtue is no longer such if it be stagnant. A mans life should be constantly as fresh as this river. It should be the same channel, but a new water every instant.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“To believe her limited in range because she was harmonious in method is as sensible as to imagine that when the Atlantic Ocean is as smooth as a mill-pond it shrinks to the size of a mill-pond.”
—Rebecca West (18921983)
