Maximum Hours

Famous quotes containing the words maximum and/or hours:

    Only at his maximum does an individual surpass all his derivative elements, and become purely himself. And most people never get there. In his own pure individuality a man surpasses his father and mother, and is utterly unknown to them.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    Great Wits are sure to Madness near alli’d
    And thin Partitions do their Bounds divide;
    Else, why should he, with Wealth and Honour blest,
    Refuse his Age the needful hours of Rest?
    John Dryden (1631–1700)
