Famous quotes containing the words late and/or hit:
“A glimpse through an interstice caught,
Of a crowd of workmen and drivers in a barroom around the stove late of a winter night, and I unremarked seated in a corner,
Of a youth who loves me and whom I love, silently approaching and seating himself near, that he may hold me by the hand,
A long while amid the noises of coming and going, of drinking and
oath and smutty jest,
There we two, content, happy in being together, speaking little,
perhaps not a word.”
—Walt Whitman (18191892)
“In the range of things toddlers have to learn and endlessly reviewwhy you cant put bottles with certain labels in your mouth, why you have to sit on the potty, why you cant take whatever you want in the store, why you dont hit your friendsby the time we got to why you cant drop your peas, well, I was dropping a few myself.”
—Mary Kay Blakely (20th century)
