Cross Section Limit

Famous quotes containing the words cross, section and/or limit:

    “Expecting me to grovel,
    she carefully covers both feet
    with the hem of her skirt.
    She pretends to hide
    a coming smile
    and won’t look straight at me.
    When I talk to her,
    she chats with her friend
    in cross tones.
    Even this slim girl’s rising anger
    delights me,
    let alone her deep love.”
    —Amaru (c. seventh century A.D.)

    “To look at the cross-section of any plan of a big city is to look at something like the section of a fibrous tumor.”
    —Frank Lloyd Wright (1869–1959)

    “Greatness collapses of itself: such limit the gods have set to the growth of prosperous states.”
    —Marcus Annaeus Lucan (39–65)
