Weeks

Famous quotes containing the word weeks:

    “Rosalynn said, “Jimmy, if we could only get Prime Minister Begin and President Sadat up here on this mountain for a few days, I believe they might consider how they could prevent another war between their countries.” That gave me the idea, and a few weeks later, I invited both men to join me for a series of private talks. In September 1978, they both came to Camp David.”
    —Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)

    “Divorce is probably of nearly the same date as marriage. I believe, however, that marriage is some weeks the more ancient.”
    —Voltaire [François Marie Arouet] (1694–1778)

    “You left me last evening, and I am already half homesick about it. Possibly I would not have thought about it so feelingly, but the sight of these gloves put me in mind of it. What a happy time we have had! Six weeks of real, genuine, old-fashioned love.”
    —Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
