Famous quotes containing the words wait and/or time:
“and wait and watch until
The fattening dots burst into nimble-
Swimming tadpoles.”
—Seamus Heaney (b. 1939)
“Lest darkness fall and time fall
In a long night when learned arteries
Mounting the ice and sum of barbarous time
Shall yield, without essence, perfect accident.
We are the eyelids of defeated caves.”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
