Puzzle Piece

Famous quotes containing the words puzzle and/or piece:

    Waiting for the race to become official, he began to feel as if he had as much effect on the final outcome of the operation as a single piece of a jumbo jigsaw puzzle has to its predetermined final design. Only the addition of the missing fragments of the puzzle would reveal if the picture was as he guessed it would be.
    Stanley Kubrick (b. 1928)

    And if the stage-dark head rehearse
    The fifth act of the closing night,
    Why, cut it off, piece after piece,
    And throw the tough cortex away....
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)
