Famous quotes containing the words blisters and/or develop:
“Ramses knelt beside Amon ... and He took one end of His skirt and wiped all that was black from the Gods face, kissing the God on the lips even though His own mouth blossomed at once into two great blisters which He wore in combat.”
—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
“An amoeba is a formless thing which takes many shapes. It moves by thrusting out an arm, and flowing into the arm. It multiplies by pulling itself in two, without permanently diminishing the original. So with words. A meaning may develop on the periphery of the body of meanings associated with a word, and shortly this tentacle-meaning has grown to such proportions that it dwarfs all other meanings.”
—Charlton Laird (b. 1901)
