Late Race

Famous quotes containing the words late and/or race:

“Go; and if that word have not quite killed thee,
Ease me with death by bidding me got too.
Oh, if it have, let my word work on me,
And a just office on a murderer do.
Except it be too late to kill me so,
Being double dead: going, and bidding go.”
—John Donne (1572–1631)

“This is my father or, maybe,
It is as he was,

A likeness, one of the race of fathers: earth
And sea and air.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
