Fit

Famous quotes containing the word fit:

“Hunger is an altogether fit companion for the idle man.”
—Hesiod (c. 8th century B.C.)

“A fit abode for a poet. Stage setting at least correct.”
—Ezra Pound (1885–1972)

“We want some coat woven of elastic steel, stout as the first, and limber as the second. We want a ship in these billows we inhabit. An angular, dogmatic house would be rent to chips and splinters, in this storm of many elements. No, it must be tight, and fit to the form of man, to live at all; as a shell is the architecture of a house founded on the sea.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
