Usable Breathing Time

Famous quotes containing the words usable, breathing and/or time:

    It is written in the Book of Usable Minutes
    That all things have their center in their dying....
    John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    Thou hast left behind
    Powers that will work for thee; air, earth, and skies;
    There’s not a breathing of the common wind
    That will forget thee; thou hast great allies;
    Thy friends are exultations, agonies,
    And love, and man’s unconquerable mind.
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    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)
