Small Ball

Famous quotes containing the words small and/or ball:

“By the by, who ever knew a man who never read or wrote neither who hadn’t got some small back parlour which he would call a study!”
—Charles Dickens (1812–1870)

“It may be possible to do without dancing entirely. Instances have been known of young people passing many, many months successively, without being at any ball of any description, and no material injury accrue either to body or mind; Mbut when a beginning is made—when felicities of rapid motion have once been, though slightly, felt—it must be a very heavy set that does not ask for more.”
—Jane Austen (1775–1817)
