Answering

Famous quotes containing the word answering:

“Goddesses never die. They slip in and out of the world’s cities, in and out of our dreams, century after century, answering to different names, dressed differently, perhaps even disguised, perhaps idle and unemployed, their official altars abandoned, their temples feared or simply forgotten.”
—Phyllis Chesler (b. 1941)

“Politeness is as much concerned in answering letters within a reasonable time, as it is in returning a bow, immediately.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

“Let the wheel spin out,
Till all created things
With shout and answering shout
Cast off rememberings....”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
