Famous quotes containing the words face and/or clock:
“That was the most horrible day of my detention. The whole day I could see my baby’s face and wanted to call her name, “Dudu,” “Dudu,” but my mind was blank. I couldn’t recollect it. “Can a mother forget her baby’s name?” I wondered.”
—Emma Mashinini (b. 1929)
“What brought them there so far from their home,
Cuchulain that fought night long with the foam,
What says the Clock in the Great Clock Tower?
Niamh that rode on it; lad and lass
That sat so still and played at the chess?
What but heroic wantonness?”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
