Famous quotes containing the words slow, wave and/or sleep:
“And set off briskly for so slow a thing,
Still going every which way in the joints, though,
So that it looked like lightning or a scribble.”
—Robert Frost (18741963)
“And his wish is intimacy,
Intimater intimacy,
And a stricter privacy;
The impossible shall yet be done,
And, being two, shall still be one.
As the wave breaks to foam on shelves,
Then runs into a wave again,
So lovers melt their sundered selves,
Yet melted would be twain.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“I think that it would be less difficult to live eternally than to be deprived of sleep throughout life.”
—Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (18601904)
