Famous quotes containing the words hour and/or long:
“For poetry, he’s past his prime,
He takes an hour to find a rhyme;
His fire is out, his wit decayed,
His fancy sunk, his muse a jade.
I’d have him throw away his pen,
But there’s no talking to some men.”
—Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)
“Among a people generally corrupt, liberty cannot long exist.”
—Edmund Burke (1729–1797)
