Famous quotes containing the words spends and/or time:
“In love, there is always one who kisses and one who offers the cheek.”
—French proverb.
George Bernard Shaw adapted this proverb in Heartbreak House, act 2: “One turns the cheek: the other kisses it. One provides the cash: the other spends it.”
“I work all day, and get half-drunk at night.
Waking at four to soundless dark, I stare.
In time the curtain-edges will grow light.
Till then I see what’s really always there:
Unresting death, a whole day nearer now,
Making all thought impossible but how
And where and when I shall myself die.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
