Famous quotes containing the words minute and/or period:

“I did the dragon’s will until you came
Because I had fancied love a casual
Improvisation, or a settled game
That followed if I let the kerchief fall:
Those deeds were best that gave the minute wings
And heavenly music if they gave it wit.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

“There’s always a period of curious fear between the first sweet-smelling breeze and the time when the rain comes cracking down.”
