Famous quotes containing the words hour and/or long:
“Out, out, brief candle.
Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“In the long run men hit only what they aim at. Therefore, though they should fail immediately, they had better aim at something high.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
