Famous quotes containing the words word and/or length:
“And no word can be spoken of which the sense
Does not accuse and contradict at once.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“No doubt, the short distance to which you can see in the woods, and the general twilight, would at length react on the inhabitants, and make them savages. The lakes also reveal the mountains, and give ample scope and range to our thought.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
