Halting Set

Famous quotes containing the words halting and/or set:

    Of the two
    who feign anger,
    sulk in mock sleep,
    and give ear
    to the other’s halting sighs,
    who’s the winner?
    Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)

    When I married Humphrey I made up my mind to like sermons, and I set out by liking the end very much. That soon spread to the middle and the beginning, because I couldn’t have the end without them.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
