Odd Dimensions

Famous quotes containing the words odd and/or dimensions:

    It’s a very odd thing—
    As odd as can be—
    That whatever Miss T. eats
    Turns into Miss T.;
    Walter De La Mare (1873–1956)

    Is it true or false that Belfast is north of London? That the galaxy is the shape of a fried egg? That Beethoven was a drunkard? That Wellington won the battle of Waterloo? There are various degrees and dimensions of success in making statements: the statements fit the facts always more or less loosely, in different ways on different occasions for different intents and purposes.
    —J.L. (John Langshaw)
