It cannot be reiterated too often that a large, stout man should aim to acquire the distinction and dignity given by long lines. If his body is proportioned so he really has neither length of torso nor of limb he must pay more attention to the cut of his clothes and attain length in whatever artistic way he can.
If done slowly and steadily, in true rhythm and sequence, they will accomplish surprising results, and bring about a deep harmony.

We were unhurt, crouching back from the avalanche.
"The women oh, the women!" he wailed, and interrupted himself to describe a heavy-footed German Princess who had marched past his treasures as if she were inspecting a cavalry regiment, applying an unmodulated Mugneeficent to everything from the engraved gems to the Hercules torso. "Not that she was half as bad as the other kind," he added, as if with a last effort at optimism.
