Famous quotes containing the words size and/or pair:
“Beauty depends on size as well as symmetry. No very small animal can be beautiful, for looking at it takes so small a portion of time that the impression of it will be confused. Nor can any very large one, for a whole view of it cannot be had at once, and so there will be no unity and completeness.”
—Aristotle (384 B.C.–322 B.C.)
“Like to a pair of loving turtle-doves
That could not live asunder day or night.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
