Word Length

Famous quotes containing the words word and/or length:

    But to wish is first to think,
    And to think is to be dumb,
    And barren of a word to drop
    That to a milder shore might come
    And, years ahead, erect a crop.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    A needless Alexandrine ends the song,
    That, like a wounded snake, drags its slow length along.
    Alexander Pope (1688–1744)
