Famous quotes containing the word length:

    “It is the vice of our public speaking that it has not abandonment. Somewhere, not only every orator but every man should let out all the length of all the reins; should find or make a frank and hearty expression of what force and meaning is in him.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
