Famous quotes containing the words size and/or pair:
“Delusions that shrink to the size of a woman’s glove,
Then sicken inclusively outwards:
. . . the incessant recital
Intoned by reality, larded with technical terms,
Each one double-yolked with meaning and meaning’s rebuttal:
For the skirl of that bulletin unpicks the world like a knot....”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“Here comes a pair of very strange beasts, which in all
tongues are called fools.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
