Weeks

Famous quotes containing the word weeks:

    “... Estelle’s run off.”
    “Yes, what’s it all about? When did she go?”
    “Two weeks since.”
    “She’s in earnest, it appears.”
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    I weathered some merry snow-storms, and spent some cheerful winter evenings by my fireside, while the snow whirled wildly without, and even the hooting of the owl was hushed. For many weeks I met no one in my walks but those who came occasionally to cut wood and sled it to the village.... For human society I was obliged to conjure up the former occupants of these woods.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    To introduce a new play only six weeks after another has been banned is also a way to speak one’s piece to the government. It proves that art and liberty can grow back in one night under the clumsy foot which crushes them.
    Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
