Long Distance

Famous quotes containing the words long and/or distance:

“You may talk about Free Love, if you please, but we are to have the right to vote. To-day we are fined, imprisoned, and hanged, without a jury trial by our peers. You shall not cheat us by getting us off to talk about something else. When we get the suffrage, then you may taunt us with anything you please, and we will then talk about it as long as you please.”
—Lucy Stone (1818–1893)

“Letters to absence can a voice impart,
And lend a tongue when distance gags the heart.”
—Horace Walpole (1717–1797)
