Time Life

Famous quotes containing the words time and/or life:

    It is time to be old,
    To take in sail:—
    The god of bounds,
    Who sets to seas a shore,
    Came to me in his fatal rounds,
    And said: ‘No more!’
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    What is a novel if not a conviction of our fellow-men’s existence strong enough to take upon itself a form of imagined life clearer than reality and whose accumulated verisimilitude of selected episodes puts to shame the pride of documentary history?
    Joseph Conrad (1857–1924)
