Famous quotes containing the words fat and/or volumes:
“Outside every fat man there was an even fatter man trying to close in.”
—Kingsley Amis (b. 1922)
“The ladies understood each other, in the careful way that ladies do once they understand each other. They were rather a pair than a couple, supporting each other from day to day, rather a set of utile, if ill-matched, bookends between which stood the opinion and idea in the metaphorical volumes that both connected them and kept them apart.”
—Alexander Theroux (b. 1940)
