Internal Clock

Famous quotes containing the words internal and/or clock:

“Even if fathers are more benignly helpful, and even if they spend time with us teaching us what they know, rarely do they tell us what they feel. They stand apart emotionally: strong perhaps, maybe caring in a nonverbal, implicit way; but their internal world remains mysterious, unseen, “What are they really like?” we ask ourselves. “What do they feel about us, about the world, about themselves?””
—Augustus Y. Napier (20th century)

“Stands the Church clock at ten to three?
And is there honey still for tea?”
—Rupert Brooke (1887–1915)
