Space Filling

Famous quotes containing the words space and/or filling:

    “I would have broke mine eye-strings, cracked them, but
    To look upon him, till the diminution
    Of space had pointed him sharp as my needle;
    Nay, followed him till he had melted from
    The smallness of a gnat to air, and then
    Have turned mine eye and wept.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Oh, but it is dirty!
    Mthis little filling station,
    oil-soaked, oil-permeated
    to a disturbing, over-all
    black translucency.
    Be careful with that match!”
    —Elizabeth Bishop (1911–1979)
