Large Variety

Famous quotes containing the words large and/or variety:

    “What large children we are
    here. All over I grow most tall
    in the best ward. Your business is people,
    you call at the madhouse, an oracular
    eye in our nest.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    “Life is a series of diminishments. Each cessation of an activity either from choice or some other variety of infirmity is a death, a putting to final rest. Each loss, of friend or precious enemy, can be equated with the closing off of a room containing blocks of nerves ... and soon after the closing off the nerves atrophy and that part of oneself, in essence, drops away. The self is lightened, is held on earth by a gram less of mass and will.”
    —Coleman Dowell (1925–1985)
