Famous quotes containing the words hour and/or bulletin:
“‘Tis but an hour ago since it was nine,
And after one hour more ‘twill be eleven,

—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Delusions that shrink to the size of a woman’s glove,

For the skirl of that bulletin unpicks the world like a knot....”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
