Pitch Ratio

Famous quotes containing the words pitch and/or ratio:

    I saw the Arab map.
    It resembled a mare shuffling on,
    dragging its history like saddlebags,
    nearing its tomb and the pitch of hell.

    People are lucky and unlucky not according to what they get absolutely, but according to the ratio between what they get and what they have been led to expect.
