THE GREAT SHAPE-WARS: SQUARE vs RECTANGLE

The Square:

I am the true hero of geometry. I am the one who holds it all together.

I have four perfect sides, a perfect center, and I never waver in the face of adversity.

I am the square-est of them all.

The Rectangle:

I may not be perfect, but I am practical. I can be any shape I please.

I can be as wide as I am long, or I can be a perfect box.

Don't count me out just yet, I'm the realist of the group.
