Thin Space

Famous quotes containing the words thin and/or space:

    “If I had a thousand sons, the first humane principle I would
    teach them should be, to forswear thin potations and to addict
    themselves to sack.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “But alas! I never could keep a promise. I do not blame myself for this weakness, because the fault must lie in my physical organization. It is likely that such a very liberal amount of space was given to the organ which enables me to make promises, that the organ which should enable me to keep them was crowded out. But I grieve not. I like no half-way things. I had rather have one faculty nobly developed than two faculties of mere ordinary capacity.”
    —Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
