Horizontal Ellipsis Character

Famous quotes containing the words horizontal and/or character:

    I am a sort of martyr, as you see,
    A horizontal monument to patience.
    The calves of waitresses parade about
    My helpless head upon this sodden floor.
    Well, I am down again, but not yet out.
    O sweet frustrations, I shall be back for more.
    Richard Wilbur (b. 1921)

    Pity the man who has a character to support—it is worse than a large family—he is silent poor indeed.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
