Famous quotes containing the word tired:
“And youre too fired up to go to sleep, you sit at the kitchen table. Its really late, its really quiet, youre tired. Dont wanna go to bed, though. Going to bed means this was the day. This Feb. 12, this Aug. 3, this Nov. 20 is over and youre tired and you made some money but it didnt happen, nothing happened. You got through it and a whole day of your life is over. And all it isis time to go to bed.”
—Claudia Shear, U.S. author. New York Times, p. A21 (September 29, 1993)
“I get so tired listening to one million dollars here, one million dollars there, its so petty.”
—Imelda Marcos (b. 1929)
“Now, from the Gates of Hercules we flood
Westward, westward till the barbarous brine
Whelms us to the tired land where tasseling corn,
Fat beans, grapes sweeter than muscadine
Rot on the vine: in that land were we born.”
—Allen Tate (18991979)
