Precious

Famous quotes containing the word precious:

    My darling girl, Unfortunately this earth is not ... a fairy- land, but a struggle for life, perfectly natural and therefore extremely harsh. All the same, or precisely for this reason, it is happiness and comfort for us men to have a precious sweetheart—and I have the most precious, the dearest and best of all!
    Martin Bormann (1900–1945)

    There’s precious little to say between day and dark,
    Perhaps a few words on the implacable will
    Of time sailing like a magic barque
    Or something as fine for the amenities....
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    Oh, the days dwindle down to a precious few.
    Maxwell Anderson (1888–1959)
