Small Frame

Famous quotes containing the words small and/or frame:

“Adultery? Thou shalt not die. Die for adultery!

Does lecher in my sight. Let copulation thrive.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“A cold and searching wind drives away all contagion, and nothing can withstand it but what has a virtue in it, and accordingly, whatever we meet with in cold and bleak places, as the tops of mountains, we respect for a sort of sturdy innocence, a Puritan toughness. All things beside seem to be called in for shelter, and what stays out must be part of the original frame of the universe, and of such valor as God himself.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
