Inches Wide

Famous quotes containing the words inches and/or wide:

    A man finds room in the few square inches of the face for the traits of all his ancestors; for the expression of all his history, and his wants.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    There comes a time in every man’s education when he arrives at the conviction that envy is ignorance; that imitation is suicide; that he must take himself for better for worse as his portion; that though the wide universe is full of good, no kernel of nourishing corn can come to him but through his toil bestowed on that plot of ground which is given him to till.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
