Famous quotes containing the words serving, full and/or time:
“We could not help being struck by the seeming, though innocent, indifference of Nature to these men’s necessities, while elsewhere she was equally serving others. Like a true benefactress, the secret of her service is unchangeableness. Thus is the busiest merchant, though within sight of his Lowell, put to pilgrim’s shifts, and soon comes to staff and scrip and scallop-shell.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Oh! full Surrey twilight! importunate band!
Oh! strongly adorable tennis-girl’s hand!”
—Sir John Betjeman (1906–1984)
“All civilization has from time to time become a thin crust over a volcano of revolution.”
—Havelock Ellis (1859–1939)
