Winding Connection

Famous quotes containing the words winding and/or connection:

    Look, he’s winding up the watch of his wit; by and by it will strike.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Children of the same family, the same blood, with the same first associations and habits, have some means of enjoyment in their power, which no subsequent connections can supply; and it must be by a long and unnatural estrangement, by a divorce which no subsequent connection can justify, if such precious remains of the earliest attachments are ever entirely outlived.
    Jane Austen (1775–1817)
