Time Takes Place

Famous quotes containing the words time, takes and/or place:

    Custom calls me to’t.
    What custom wills, in all things should we do’t,
    The dust on antique time would lie unswept,
    And mountainous error be too highly heaped
    For truth to o’erpeer.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Love gives naught but itself and takes naught but from itself.
    Love possesses not nor would it be possessed;
    For love is sufficient unto love.
    Kahlil Gibran (1883–1931)

    Thy hatred for this misery befallen;
    On me already lost, me than thyself
    More miserable. Both have sinned, but thou
    Against God only; I against God and thee,
    And to the place of judgment will return,
    There with my cries importune Heaven, that all
    The sentence, from thy head removed, may light
    On me, sole cause to thee of all this woe,
    Me, me only, just object of his ire.”
    John Milton (1608–1674)
