The world is so huge that people are always getting lost in it. There are too many ideas and things and people too many directions to go. I was starting to believe that the reason it matters to care passionately about something is that it whittles the world down to a more manageable size. It makes the world seem not huge and empty but full of possibility.

It is the compelling power of great thoughts and ideas to engender phrases of equal size.

Aristophanes

The size of the place that one becomes a member of is limited only by the size of one’s heart.

Gary Snyder

I fell in love with this idea that you could press a button and an SUV would show up. That idea of bringing mobility to places where it hadn't been an easy option - that was a pretty compelling mission. It was a huge, huge challenge.

Tony West

We can help people. We have got to move this economy from its over-dependence on debt. People should have manageable debts, a manageable mortgage.

George Osborne

?n Hollywood actresses say they can't go above a size 6. I think everybody is operating in this huge bubble of fear. I don't think the world will come crashing down on you if you're a size 8.

Anne Hathaway

As handbags get ever more absurdly large, so they need to carry more stuff to validate the expense of this huge trunk with chains, buckles and padlocks on.
