Maximum Trunk Length

Famous quotes containing the words maximum, trunk and/or length:

    I had a quick grasp of the secret to sanity—it had become the ability to hold the maximum of impossible combinations in one’s mind.

    Let me have
    A dram of poison, such soon-speeding gear
    As will disperse itself through all the veins
    That the life-weary taker may fall dead,
    And that the trunk may be discharged of breath
    As violently as hasty powder fired
    Doth hurry from the fatal cannon’s womb.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The value of life lies not in the length of days but in the use you make of them; he has lived for a long time who has little lived.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
