Massive

Famous quotes containing the word massive:

    Among the best traitors Ireland has ever had, Mother Church ranks at the very top, a massive obstacle in the path to equality and freedom. She has been a force for conservatism, not on the basis of preserving Catholic doctrine or preventing the corruption of her children, but simply to ward off threats to her own security and influence.
    Bernadette Devlin (b. 1947)

    The massive weight of Uncle’s wedding band
    Sits heavily upon Aunt Jennifer’s hand.
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)

    Euclid alone
    Has looked on Beauty bare. Fortunate they
    Who, though once only and then but far away,
    Have heard her massive sandal set on stone.
    Edna St. Vincent Millay (1892–1950)
