“Maybe he wanted to buy a new crutch for Tiny Tim, ... Please, counselor, don't read all these tenderhearted things into it.”
Antonin Scalia
“Scrooge was better than his word. He did it all, and infinitely more; and to Tiny Tim, who did not die, he was a second father. He became as good a friend, as good a master, and as good a man, as the good old city knew, or any other good old city, town, or borough, in the good old world. Some people laughed to see the alteration in him, but he let them laugh, and little heeded them; for he was wise enough to know that nothing ever happened on this globe, for good, at which some people did not have their fill of laughter in the outset; and knowing that such as these would be blind anyway, he thought it quite as well that they should wrinkle up their eyes in grins, as have the malady in less attractive forms. His own heart laughed: and that was quite enough for him.”
Charles Dickens
“I then go miserably enough to the typewriter and I edit with tiny little pen scribbles until you can't read it anymore. And then, I put it into a word processor.”
Campbell Geeslin
“Pain is such an uncomfortable feeling that even a tiny amount of it is enough to ruin every enjoyment.”
Will Rogers
“One way to compensate for a tiny brain is to pretend to be dead”
Scott Adams
“If a woman hasn't got a tiny streak of harlot in her, she's a dry stick as a rule”
D.H. Lawrence
“A mighty flame followeth a tiny spark”
Dante Alighieri
