Lap Time

Famous quotes containing the words lap and/or time:

    “Beatrice. Will you go hear this news, signor?
    Benedick. I will live in thy heart, die in thy lap and be buried in thy eyes; and moreover, I will go with thee to thy uncle’s.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “Each work of art excludes the world, concentrates attention on itself. For the time it is the only thing worth doing—to do just that; be it a sonnet, a statue, a landscape, an outline head of Caesar, or an oration. Presently we return to the sight of another that globes itself into a whole as did the first, for example, a beautiful garden; and nothing seems worth doing in life but laying out a garden.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
