Time Bubbles

Famous quotes containing the words time and/or bubbles:

    The manuscript lay like a dust-rag on his desk, and Eitel found, as he had found before, that the difficulty of art was that it forced a man back on his life, and each time the task was more difficult and distasteful.
    Norman Mailer (b. 1923)

    Give fools their gold, and knaves their power;
    Let fortune’s bubbles rise and fall;
    Who sows a field, or trains a flower,
    Or plants a tree, is more than all.
    John Greenleaf Whittier (1807–1892)
