Giant/people

Famous quotes containing the words giant and/or people:

    In frames as large as rooms that face all ways
    And block the ends of streets with giant loaves,
    Screen graves with custard, cover slums with praise
    Of motor-oil and cuts of salmon, shine
    Perpetually these sharply-pictured groves
    Of how life should be.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    Everybody is so talented nowadays that the only people I care to honour as deserving real distinction are those who remain in obscurity.
    Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
