Long Tails

Famous quotes containing the words long and/or tails:

“Facts are generally overesteemed. For most practical purposes, a thing is what men think it is. When they judged the earth flat, it was flat. As long as men thought slavery tolerable, tolerable it was. We live down here among shadows, shadows among shadows.”
—John Updike (b. 1932)

“I think mice
Are rather nice.

Their tails are long,
Their faces small,
They haven’t any
Chins at all.”
—Rose Fyleman (1877–1957)
