Clock Line

Famous quotes containing the words clock and/or line:

“Stands the Church clock at ten to three?
And is there honey still for tea?”

Poets who wrote great poems, one by one,
And spaced by many years, each line an act
Through which few labor, which no men retract.
This passion is the scholar’s heritage,”
