Famous quotes containing the words repeat and/or mark:
“A few years later, I would have answered, I never repeat anything. That is the ritual phrase of society people, by which the gossip is reassured every time.”
—Marcel Proust (18711922)
“So unrecorded did it slip away,
So blind was I to see and to foresee,
So dull to mark the budding of my tree
That would not blossom yet for many a May.
If only I could recollect it, such
A day of days! I let it come and go
As traceless as a thaw of bygone snow;
It seemed to mean so little, meant so much;
If only now I could recall that touch,
First touch of hand in handDid one but know!”
—Christina Georgina Rossetti (18301894)
