Famous quotes containing the words selfish and/or giant:
“Those who live to the future must always appear selfish to those who live to the present.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“In frames as large as rooms that face all ways
And block the ends of streets with giant loaves,
Screen graves with custard, cover slums with praise
Of motor-oil and cuts of salmon, shine
Perpetually these sharply-pictured groves
Of how life should be.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
