Famous quotes containing the words minutes and/or long:
“if thou slip thy troth and do not come at all.
As minutes in the clock do strike so call for death I shall:
To please both thy false heart, and rid myself from woe,
That rather had to die in troth than live forsaken so.”
—Unknown. The Lady Prayeth the Return of Her Lover Abiding on the Seas (l. 1922)
“The measure of the little while
That Ive been long away.”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
