Famous quotes containing the words long and/or handled:

I cannot stay from that

For a mans attention
Brings such satisfaction
To the craving in my bones.”

“In this lucid and flexible pattern only one thing remained always stationary, but this fallacy went unnoticed by Martha. The blind spot was the victim.

—Vladimir Nabokov (18991977)
