Time Act

Famous quotes containing the words time and/or act:

    Absence, hear my protestation
    Against thy strength
    Distance and length,
    Do what thou canst for alteration:
    For hearts of truest metal
    Absence doth join, and Time doth settle.
    John Hoskyns (1566–1638)

    For, truly speaking, whoever provokes me to a good act or thought has given me a pledge of his fidelity to virtue,—he has come under the bonds to adhere to that cause to which we are jointly attached.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
