Small Bales

Famous quotes containing the words small and/or bales:

    Vulgarity cannot exist in the absence of loftier values. Once it has affected the latter, however, it wants to absorb them. Unless you want to be as weak and small as human beings, you had better stay away from them.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)

    No matter what disaster occurred
    She stood in desperate music wound
    Wound, wound, and she made in her triumph
    Where the bales and the baskets lay
    No common intelligible sound
    But sang, “O sea-starved hungry sea.”
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
