Famous quotes containing the words monstrous and/or volume:
“All legendary obstacles lay between
Us, the long imaginary plain,
The monstrous ruck of mountains”

“A big leather-bound volume makes an ideal razorstrap. A thin book is useful to stick under a table with a broken caster to steady it. A large, flat atlas can be used to cover a window with a broken pane. And a thick, old-fashioned heavy book with a clasp is the finest thing in the world to throw at a noisy cat.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
