Famous quotes containing the word length:

    All expression of truth does at length take this deep ethical form.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    At length to hospital
    This man was limited,
    Where screens leant on the wall
    And idle headphones hung.
    Since he would soon be dead
    They let his wife come along
    And pour out tea, each day.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    Twenty-four-hour room service generally refers to the length of time that it takes for the club sandwich to arrive. This is indeed disheartening, particularly when you’ve ordered scrambled eggs.
    Fran Lebowitz (b. 1950)
