Larger Piece

Famous quotes containing the words larger and/or piece:

    “We over-estimate the conscience of our friend. His goodness seems better than our goodness, his nature finer, his temptations less. Everything that is his,—his name, his form, his dress, books, and instruments,—fancy enhances. Our own thought sounds new and larger from his mouth.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Kelly: I washed my face clean the morning I woke up in your bedroom.
    Griff: You got morals in my bedroom?
    Kelly: You had nothing to do with it. Nothing! It was your mirror.
    Griff: You must have taken a long look.
    Kelly: It was the longest look of my life. I saw a broken-down piece of machinery. Nothing but the buck, the bed, and the bottle for the rest of my life.”
    —Samuel Fuller (b. 1911)
