Puzzle World

Famous quotes containing the words puzzle and/or world:

    Waiting for the race to become official, he began to feel as if he had as much effect on the final outcome of the operation as a single piece of a jumbo jigsaw puzzle has to its predetermined final design. Only the addition of the missing fragments of the puzzle would reveal if the picture was as he guessed it would be.
    Stanley Kubrick (b. 1928)

    As he watched from windows in the failing light
    For his world that was always just out of sight
    Where weakness was part of the ordinary landscape
    And the friendly road knew his footstep, his footstep.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
