Hours

Famous quotes containing the word hours:

    The waves have now a redder glow—
    The hours are breathing faint and low—
    And when, amid no earthly moans,
    Down, down that town shall settle hence,
    Hell, rising from a thousand thrones,
    Shall do it reverence.
    Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

    He promised to meet me two hours since, and he was ever precise in promise-keeping.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Our hours in love have wings; in absence, crutches.
    Colley Cibber (1671–1757)
