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)
“For WAR, consisteth not in Battle only, or the act of fighting; but in a tract of time, wherein the Will to content by Battle is sufficiently known.... So the nature of War, consisteth not in actual fighting; but in the known disposition thereto, during all the time there is no assurance to the contrary. All other time is PEACE.”
—Thomas Hobbes (1579–1688)
