Small Fish

Famous quotes containing the words small and/or fish:

    Exaggeration is in the course of things. Nature sends no creature, no man into the world, without adding a small excess of his proper quality. Given the planet, it is still necessary to add the impulse; so, to every creature nature added a little violence of direction in its proper path, a shove to put it on its way; in every instance, a slight generosity, a drop too much.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    All the fish in us
    had escaped for a minute.
    The real fish did not mind.
    We did not disturb their personal life.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
