The size of the universe is no more depressing than the size of a cow.

Yet actual physical size has an emotional meaning. We relate everything to our own size, and our emotional response to size is controlled by the fact that men on the average are between five and six feet high.. ..If practical considerations allowed me, cost of material, of transport, etc., I should like to work on large carvings more often than I do. The average in-between size does not disconnect an idea enough from prosaic everyday life. The very small or the very big (sculpture, fh) takes on an added size emotion.
Henry Moore
As God has made the soul immortal, he has made the universe infinite, if it is true that eternity is nothing other than unlimited duration and infinity is space without limits. Suppose the universe were not infinite: God himself would be finite, because he could not be where there is nothing, and he could not increase the size of the universe without adding to his own size and come to be where he had not been before.
Cyrano de Bergerac
Now we've entered Globalization 3.0, and it is shrinking the world from size small to a size tiny.
Thomas L. Friedman
Absolute size by itself is no indicator of success and achievement, let alone of managerial competence. Being the right size is.
Peter F. Drucker
You can tell the size of a man by the size of the thing that makes him mad.
Adlai Stevenson
