Period Length

Famous quotes containing the words period and/or length:

    Finally she grew quiet, and after that, coherent thought. With this, stalked through her a cold, bloody rage. Hours of this, a period of introspection, a space of retrospection, then a mixture of both. Out of this an awful calm.
    Zora Neale Hurston (1891–1960)

    At length upon the lone Chorasmian shore
    He paused, a wide and melancholy waste
    Of putrid marshes.
    Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)
