Task Waits

Famous quotes containing the words task and/or waits:

    “I live for those who love me,
    Whose hearts are kind and true;
    For the Heaven that smiles above me,
    And awaits my spirit too;
    For all human ties that bind me,
    For the task by God assigned me,
    For the bright hopes yet to find me,
    And the good that I can do.”
    —George Linnaeus Banks (1821–1881)
