Time Pad

Famous quotes containing the words time and/or pad:

    “So we may never
    Again feel fully confident of the stratagem that bore us
    And lived on a certain time after that. And it went away
    Little by little, as most things do. To profit
    By this mainstream is today’s chore and adventure.”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    “I have known the inexorable sadness of pencils,
    Neat in their boxes, dolor of pad and paper-weight,
    All the misery of manilla folders and mucilage,
    Desolation in immaculate public places,”
    —Theodore Roethke (1908–1963)
