Wishing Dust

Famous quotes containing the words wishing and/or dust:

    It is a happy art to know when one has said enough. I would leave my hearers wishing me to say more rather than give them cause to show, by their inattention, that I had said too much.
    Samuel Richardson (1689–1761)

    I cannot praise a fugitive and cloistered virtue, unexercised and unbreathed, that never sallies out and sees her adversary, but slinks out of the race where that immortal garland is to be run for, not without dust and heat.
    John Milton (1608–1674)
