Famous quotes containing the words idle and/or hour:
“...I do deeply deplore, of the sake of the cause, the prevalent notion, that the clergy must be had, either by persuasion or by bribery. They will not need persuasion or bribery, if their hearts are with us; if they are not, we are better without them. It is idle to suppose that the kingdom of heaven cannot come on earth, without their cooperation.”
—Sarah M. Grimke (1792–1873)
“O love, if I regret the age when one savors you, it is not for the hour of pleasure, but for the one that follows it.”
—Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712–1778)
