Famous quotes containing the words wide, world and/or magazine:

    Timothy Winters comes to school
    With eyes as wide as a football-pool,
    Ears like bombs and teeth like splinters:
    A blitz of a boy is Timothy Winters.
    Charles Causley (b. 1917)

    The new vulcanism is really a daring attempt to connect the present, incomprehensible world to a past, unknown one.
    Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)

    Any one who knows what the worth of family affection is among the lower classes, and who has seen the array of little portraits stuck over a labourer’s fireplace ... will perhaps feel with me that in counteracting the tendencies, social and industrial, which every day are sapping the healthier family affections, the sixpenny photograph is doing more for the poor than all the philanthropists in the world.
    —Macmillan’s Magazine (London, September 1871)
