Fat Volumes

Famous quotes containing the words fat and/or volumes:

    “A fat stomach sticks out too far, Monsieur La Rue. It prevents you from looking down and seeing what is going on around you.”
    —Norman Reilly Raine (1895–1971)

    “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)
