Wait

Famous quotes containing the word wait:

“Virginity is now a mere preamble or waiting room to be got out of as soon as possible; it is without significance. Old age is similarly a waiting room, where you go after life’s over and wait for cancer or a stroke. The years before and after the menstrual years are vestigial: the only meaningful condition left to women is that of fruitfulness.”
—Ursula K. Le Guin (b. 1929)

“Ample make this Bed—
Make this Bed with Awe—
In it wait till Judgment break
Excellent and Fair.”
—Emily Dickinson (1830–1886)

“Are you the one who is to come, or are we to wait for another?”
—Bible: New Testament, Matthew 11:3.

John the Baptist, by word of messenger, to Jesus.
