Famous quotes containing the words hour and/or long:
“Go, throng each other’s drawing-rooms,
Ye idols of a petty clique:
Strut your brief hour in borrowed plumes,
And make your penny-trumpets squeak:
Deck your dull talk with pilfered shreds
Of learning from a noble time,
And oil each other’s little heads
With mutual Flattery’s golden slime.”
—Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
“As long as they desire the same object, they are of one mind, but having to achieve the same thing immediately disrupts their unanimity.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
