Twenty Minutes

Famous quotes containing the words twenty minutes, twenty and/or minutes:

    While on the shop and street I gazed
    My body of a sudden blazed;
    And twenty minutes more or less

    That I was blessèd and could bless.

    Twenty men crossing a bridge,
    Into a village,
    Are twenty men crossing twenty bridges,
    Into twenty villages,
    Or one man
    Crossing a single bridge into a village.
    Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    For certain minutes at the least
    That crafty demon and that loud beast
    That plague me day and night
    Ran out of my sight;
    Though I had long perned in the gyre,
    Between my hatred and desire....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
