Famous quotes containing the words size and/or proportion:
“O hideous little bat, the size of snot,
With polyhedral eye and shabby clothes,”

“Families need families. Parents need to be parented. Grandparents, aunts, and uncles are back in fashion because they are necessary. Stresses on many families are out of proportion to anything two parents can handle.”
