Weeks

Famous quotes containing the word weeks:

    I sought a theme and sought for it in vain,
    I sought it daily for six weeks or so.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    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)

    The modern American tourist now fills his experience with pseudo-events. He has come to expect both more strangeness and more familiarity than the world naturally offers. He has come to believe that he can have a lifetime of adventure in two weeks and all the thrills of risking his life without any real risk at all.
    Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)
