Nbn Late Edition

Famous quotes containing the words late and/or edition:

    Therefore with idle hands and head I sit
    In late December before the fire’s daze
    Punished by crimes of which I would be quit.
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    I knew a gentleman who was so good a manager of his time that he would not even lose that small portion of it which the calls of nature obliged him to pass in the necessary-house, but gradually went through all the Latin poets in those moments. He bought, for example, a common edition of Horace, of which he tore off gradually a couple of pages, read them first, and then sent them down as a sacrifice to Cloacina: this was so much time fairly gained.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
