A statue is a sculpture representing one or more people or animals (including abstract concepts allegorically represented as people or animals), normally full-length, as opposed to a bust, and at least close to life-size, or larger. A small statue, usually small enough to be picked up, is called a statuette or figurine.
The definition of a statue is not always clear-cut; equestrian statues, of a person on a horse, are certainly included, and in many cases, such as a Madonna and Child or a Pietà, a sculpture of two people will also be.
Statues have been produced in many cultures from prehistory to the present; the oldest known statue dating to about 30,000 years ago. The world's tallest statue, Spring Temple Buddha, is 420 feet (128 m), and is located in Lushan County, Henan, China.
Many statues are built on commission to commemorate a historical event, or the life of an influential person. Many statues are intended as public art, exhibited outdoors or in public buildings. Some statues gain fame in their own right, separate from the person or concept they represent, as with the Statue of Liberty.

Fun is the enjoyment of pleasure, particularly in leisure activities. Fun is an experience — short-term, often unexpected, informal, not cerebral and generally purposeless. It is an enjoyable distraction, diverting the mind and body from any serious task or contributing an extra dimension to it. Although particularly associated with recreation and play, fun may be encountered during work, social functions, and even seemingly mundane activities of daily living. It may often have little to no logical basis, and opinions on whether or not an activity is fun may differ. A distinction between enjoyment and fun is difficult but possible to articulate, fun being a more spontaneous, playful, or active event. There are psychological and physiological implications to the experience of fun.
The word is associated with sports, high merriment, and amusement. Although its etymology is uncertain, it may be derived from fonne (fool) and fonnen (the one fooling the other). Its meaning in 1727 was "cheat, trick, hoax", a meaning still retained in the phrase "to make fun of".

From GIANT Buddhas to giant library heads to Peter the Great to many more...these are the 15 BIGGEST Statues in the world. This surreal statue looks like a giant bust of a man that has a block instead of a face, and although it looks just like a stunning piece of public art, there is actually more to this statue than meets the eye. The 81 foot tall La Tete Carrée is also a functioning library. Inside that big old blockhead is three floors of books that anyone can get inside and check out! To visit the square head library, you just have to make it out to Nice, France. At the foot of the Batu Caves in Selangor, Malaysia stands one of the tallest statues of a Hindu deity in the world. It stands 140 feet tall and was made from more than 1550 pounds of concrete, 350 tons of steel and 300 lit...

Subscribe to Talltanic http://goo.gl/wgfvrr 6 - The Travellers These Bronze statues are the sculpted works of French artist Bruno Catalano who says the missing sections of their bodies represent a world citizen who travels to different places and leaves a portion of themselves wherever they go. These unique sculptures will often cause double takes and invite the viewers to literally fill in the blanks. Bruno's work has been hailed as existential and a masterful play on negative space. The introspective often uncertain expressions lingering on those bronze facial features as well as the usual suitcase drifting on a weathered extended hand all tie into his theme of a traveller...

You and I were two old and tortured souls
Repaired by a love of broken things
In a life, just some bodies growing old
No fear of the end, of anything
We're just ordinary people, you and me
Time will turn us into statues, eventually
We got by, though we never needed much
A sliver of hope, no diamond rings
We got high, it was heaven, it was hell
Flying over them with broken wings
We're just ordinary people, you and me
Time will turn us into statues, eventually
Just two ordinary people, you and me
Time will turn us into statues, eventually
Our bones forever in stone
Monuments of life
To dust as everything must
We fade away in time, oh
We're just ordinary people, you and me
Time will turn us into statues, eventually
Just two ordinary people, you and me
