Famous quotes containing the words pause and/or period:
“Between the dark and the daylight,
When the night is beginning to lower,
Comes a pause in the days occupations,
That is known as the Childrens Hour.”
—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (18091882)
“Intellectual life is international. Only a period of discouragement, an age that has given up on itself, that wants to preserve, that has been driven onto the defensive, can be intellectually nationalist. Such a period is essentially conservative. A person who has progress in his heart is international.”
—Robert Musil (18801942)
