Inch Quotes

Short lines built around small measures.

These quotes play with 'inch' in a few different ways - as a nod to the band Nine Inch Nails, as a literal measurement of height, and as a striking image of how little separates comfort from confinement. It's a small word doing a lot of work. See the Architecture quotes for more on structure and design.

I love James Taylor, Jeff Buckley, Elliott Smith and Nine Inch Nails.

Quotes by Nat Wolff
