Famous quotes containing the words minutes and/or long:
“What a devil hast thou to do with the time of the day? Unless hours were cups of sack, and minutes capons, and clocks the

taffeta, I see no reason why thou shouldst be so superfluous
to demand the time of the day.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“The decisions of law courts should never be printed: in the long run, they form a counterauthority to the law.”
