Famous quotes containing the words happy and/or time:
“When I heard at the close of the day how my name had been receiv’d
with plaudits in the capitol, still it was not a happy night for me
that follow’d,
And else when I carous’d, or when my plans were accomplish’d,
still I was not happy,
But the day when I rose at dawn from the bed of perfect health,
refresh’d, singing, inhaling the ripe breath of autumn,”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
“Time kills me terribly.
“Time shall not murder you,” He said,
“Nor the green nought be hurt;
Who could hack out your unsucked heart,
O green and unborn and undead?”
I saw time murder me.”
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
