Famous quotes containing the word clock:
“The stars move still, time runs, the clock will strike,
The devil will come, and Faustus must be damned.
O Ill leap up to my God: who pulls me down?
See, see, where Christs blood streams in the firmament.
One drop would save my soul, half a drop, ah my Christ.”
—Christopher Marlowe (15641593)
