Famous quotes containing the words hour and/or long:
“Ah, Faustus,
Now hast thou but one bare hour to live,
And then thou must be damned perpetually!
Stand still, you ever-moving spheres of heaven,
That time may cease and midnight never come!
Fair Nature’s eye, rise, rise again and make
Perpetual day; or let this hour be but
A year, a month, a week, a natural day,
That Faustus may repent and save his soul!”
—Christopher Marlowe (1564–1593)
“And desire shall fail: because man goeth to his long home, and the mourners go about the streets.”
—Bible: Hebrew Ecclesiastes 12:5.
