Small Volumes

Famous quotes containing the words small and/or volumes:

    “Much wondering to see upon all hands, of wattles and woodwork made,
    Your bell-mounted churches, and guardless the sacred cairn and the rath,
    And a small and a feeble populace stooping with mattock and spade,
    Or weeding or ploughing with faces a-shining with much-toil wet;
    While in this place and that place, with bodies unglorious, their chieftains stood....”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “Devise, wit; write, pen; for I am for whole volumes in folio.”
