Time Allowed

Famous quotes containing the words time and/or allowed:

    Now the hungry lion roars,
    And the wolf behowls the moon;
    Whilst the heavy ploughman snores,
    All with weary task fordone.
    Now the wasted brands do glow,
    Whilst the screech-owl, screeching loud,
    Puts the wretch that lies in woe
    In remembrance of a shroud.
    Now it is the time of night,
    That the graves, all gaping wide,
    Every one lets forth his sprite,
    In the church-way paths to glide:
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The people inside have no water
    and are never allowed to touch.
    They crack like macadam.
    They are mute.
    They do not cry help
    except inside....
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
