Famous quotes containing the words tape and/or head:

    “We shall see but little way if we require to understand what we see. How few things can a man measure with the tape of his understanding! How many greater things might he be seeing in the meanwhile!”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “They all see you when you least suspect.
    Out flat in your p.j.’s glowering at T.V.
    or at the oven gassing the cat
    or at the Hotel 69 head to knee.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
