Front Rankers and Rank Fronters

Front Rankers and Rank Fronters.

Think big, go big and be big,” is the slogan of the quick'n and the straight griffin to the wide open graces of existence. Britons are still the biggest little people in the human hotchpotch, in spite of themselves individiously. As singular nouns they are subjective to the verb “to be,” but considered as an aggregation of ideas, they conspire to promote something bigger than themselves.

There are peoples who think big, but fail to match the colour of their thoughts with the fabric of their actions; there are others who are so busy going big that they have no time to encourage the passenger service between heart and head, and still others who were born to be big, but missed the right train of thought to the highlands of Humanity.

The elephant is big, but being bereft of bigotry, he is no bigger than he doesn't know he is: the gnat, being a fly of personality and unaware of how much he can't do, is as big as the elephant, who is only as elephantine as his perception.

Which proves that perception is only “early doors” to Imagination or an advance screening of the feature films of the Future. Quoting from the same advertisement, Ideals are a close-up of Big Bill Truth in a love scene with Josephine Justice. An idealist is one who is big enough to get a screw at the screening over the swelled heads of the front-rankers, or the rank fronters.
