Famous quotes containing the words sevens, world and/or series:

    “See,
    how they trace
    across the very-marble
    of this place,
    bright sevens and printed fours,
    elevens and careful eights....”
    —Hilda Doolittle (1886–1961)

    “To me this world is all one continued vision of fancy or imagination, and I feel flattered when I am told so. What is it sets Homer, Virgil and Milton in so high a rank of art? Why is Bible more entertaining and instructive than any other book? Is it not because they are addressed to the imagination, which is spiritual sensation, and but mediately to the understanding or reason?”
    —William Blake (1757–1827)

    “Every day the fat woman dies a series of small deaths.”
    —Shelley Bovey, U.S. author. Being Fat Is Not a Sin, ch. 1 (1989)
