Line Weight

Famous quotes containing the words line and/or weight:

    For as the interposition of a rivulet, however small, will occasion the line of the phalanx to fluctuate, so any trifling disagreement will be the cause of seditions; but they will not so soon flow from anything else as from the disagreement between virtue and vice, and next to that between poverty and riches.
    Aristotle (384–322 B.C.)

    as his weight wilts
    and he is on a porch
    that won’t hold my arms,
    or the legs of the race run
    forwards, or the film
    played backwards on his grandson’s eyes.
    Michael S. Harper (b. 1938)
