“Not huffy or stuffy, nor tiny or tall, / But fluffy, just fluffy, with no brains at all.”
A. P. Herbert
“The dungeon scene in particular was beset with difficulties. The underground room wasn't well ventilated. Not only was it stuffy, it was also packed tight with the 11 characters and our 15-member production team. It was really hard to fix the lights.”
Sarawut Wichiensarn
“This is not a stuffy academic conference. This is open to the public and free.”
Joy Pratte
“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
“It's not that PowerPoint brought the Columbia down, but the method of presentation broke up the argument into tiny fragments, and it's intensely hierarchical-no sentences, just little phrases.”
Edward Tufte
“If you're a tall day, you don't want a tiny little hat. You want something that will balance your whole figure.”
Casey Bush
“We're not chasing the really tiny companies that have moved enormous amounts, ... The core companies with meaningful franchises are the places to be.”
