Highly Exaggerated

Famous quotes containing the words highly and/or exaggerated:

“William James once said: “Progress is a terrible thing.” It is more than that: it is also a highly ambiguous notion. For who knows but that a little further on the way a bridge may not have collapsed or a crevice split the earth?”
—Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)

“The shadows of things are greater than themselves; and the more exaggerated the shadow, the more unlike the substance.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
