Head Size

Famous quotes containing the words head and/or size:

    The back somersault, the kip-up—
    And at last, the stand on his hands,
    Perfect, with his feet together,
    His head down, evenly breathing,
    James Dickey (b. 1923)

    One writes of scars healed, a loose parallel to the pathology of the skin, but there is no such thing in the life of an individual. There are open wounds, shrunk sometimes to the size of a pin-prick but wounds still. The marks of suffering are more comparable to the loss of a finger, or the sight of an eye. We may not miss them, either, for one minute in a year, but if we should there is nothing to be done about it.
    F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
