Famous quotes containing the words small, plastic and/or nose:
“Here was a little of everything in a small compass to satisfy the wants and the ambition of the woods,... but there seemed to me, as usual, a preponderance of children’s toys,—dogs to bark, and cats to mew, and trumpets to blow, where natives there hardly are yet. As if a child born into the Maine woods, among the pine cones and cedar berries, could not do without such a sugar-man or skipping-jack as the young Rothschild has.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The plastic virtues: purity, unity, and truth, keep nature in subjection.”
—Guillaume Apollinaire (1880–1918)
“And that laugh that wrinkles your nose touches my foolish heart.”
—Dorothy Fields (1904–1974)
