Average Age

Famous quotes containing the words average and/or age:

    And since the average lifetime—the relative longevity—is far greater for memories of poetic sensations than for those of heartbreaks, since the very long time that the grief I felt then because of Gilbert, it has been outlived by the pleasure I feel, whenever I wish to read, as in a sort of sundial, the minutes between twelve fifteen and one o’clock, in the month of May, upon remembering myself chatting ... with Madame Swann under the reflection of a cradle of wisteria.
    Marcel Proust (1871–1922)

    Were not the right man on our side,
    The man of God’s own choosing.
    Dost ask who that may be?
    Christ Jesus, it is he,
    Lord Sabaoth is his name,
    From age to age the same,
    And he must win the battle.
    Martin Luther (1483–1546)
