Small Submerged Atoll

Famous quotes containing the words small and/or submerged:

“Enthusiasm. A distemper of youth, curable by small doses of repentance in connection with outward applications of experience.”
—Ambrose Bierce (1842–1914)

“... we’re not out to benefit society, to remold existence, to make industry safe for anyone except ourselves, to give any small peoples except ourselves their rights. We’re not out for submerged tenths, we’re not going to suffer over how the other half lives. We’re out for Mary’s job and Luella’s art, and Barbara’s independence and the rest of our individual careers and desires.”
—Anne O’Hagan (1869–?)
