Crowds/scale

Famous quotes containing the words crowds and/or scale:

    The long high tent of growing and making, wired-off
    Wood tables past which crowds shuffle, eyeing the scrubbed
    spaced
    Extrusions of earth....
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    ... the meanest life, the poorest existence, is attributed to God’s will, but as human beings become more affluent, as their living standard and style begin to ascend the material scale, God descends the scale of responsibility at a commensurate speed.
    Maya Angelou (b. 1928)
