The Block Size

Famous quotes containing the words block and/or size:

    Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me; for you are setting your mind not on divine things but on human things.
    Bible: New Testament, Matthew 16:23.

    Jesus to Peter.

    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)
