Famous quotes containing the words face and/or clock:
“Child,
why do you waste your time
on childish things alone?
Clothe yourself in anger.
Take courage,
and cast off this honesty
toward your lover.
When her girlfriends
gave her such advice,
she answered,
her face frightened,
Speak softly.
The lord of my breath
is still in my heart.
No doubt hell hear you.”
—Amaru (c. seventh century A.D.)
“Stands the Church clock at ten to three?
And is there honey still for tea?”
—Rupert Brooke (18871915)
