Long Count Dates

Famous quotes containing the words long, count and/or dates:

“Shall we never have done with that cliché, so stupid that it could only be human, about the sympathy of animals for man when he is unhappy? Animals love happiness almost as much as we do. A fit of crying disturbs them, they’ll sometimes imitate sobbing, and for a moment they’ll reflect our sadness. But they flee unhappiness as they flee fever, and I believe that in the long run they are capable of boycotting it.”
—Colette [Sidonie Gabrielle Colette] (1873–1954)

“Through excessive exertion they put together some free time, and afterwards have no idea what to do with it except to count the hours until they’ve passed.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

“Nothing so dates a man as to decry the younger generation.”
—Adlai Stevenson (1900–1965)
