Famous quotes containing the words hours, local and/or time:
“And when his hours are numbered, and the world
Is all his own, retiring, as he were not,
Leaves, when the sun appears, astonished Art
To mimic in slow structures, stone by stone,
Built in an age, the mad winds night-work,
The frolic architecture of the snow.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“The country is fed up with children and their problems. For the first time in history, the differences in outlook between people raising children and those who are not are beginning to assume some political significance. This difference is already a part of the conflicts in local school politics. It may spread to other levels of government. Society has less time for the concerns of those who raise the young or try to teach them.”
—Joseph Featherstone (20th century)
“Come, come said Toms father, at your time of life,
Theres no longer excuse for thus playing the rake
It is time you should think, boy, of taking a wife.
Why, so it is, fatherwhose wife shall I take?”
—Thomas Moore (17791852)
