Famous quotes containing the words space and/or suit:

    There is commonly sufficient space about us. Our horizon is never quite at our elbows.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    When I moved in with a bathing suit and tea bags
    the ocean rumbled like a train backing up
    and at each window secrets came in
    like gas.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
