Famous quotes containing the words large and/or scale:

    If the hero is not a person, the emblem
    Of him, even if Xenophon, seems
    To stand taller than a person stands, has
    A wider brow, large and less human
    Eyes and bruted ears: the man-like body
    Of a primitive.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    That age will be rich indeed when those relics which we call Classics, and the still older and more than classic but even less known Scriptures of the nations, shall have still further accumulated, when the Vaticans shall be filled with Vedas and Zendavestas and Bibles, with Homers and Dantes and Shakespeares, and all the centuries to come shall have successively deposited their trophies in the forum of the world. By such a pile we may hope to scale heaven at last.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
