Smaller Works

Famous quotes containing the words smaller and/or works:

    War will never cease until babies begin to come into the world with larger cerebrums and smaller adrenal glands.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)

    Now they express
    All that’s content to wear a worn-out coat,
    All actions done in patient hopelessness,
    All that ignores the silences of death,
    Thinking no further than the hand can hold,
    All that grows old,
    Yet works on uselessly with shortened breath.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
