Hour Meter

Famous quotes containing the words hour and/or meter:

“If a man would allot half an hour every night for self-conversation, and recapitulate with himself whatever he has done, right or wrong, in the course of the day, he would be both the better and the wiser for it.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

“His meter was bitter, and ironic and spectacular and inviting: so was life. There wasn’t much other life during those times than to what his pen paid the tribute of poetic tragic glamour and offered the reconciliation of the familiarities of tragedy.”
