Quarter Mare

Famous quotes containing the words quarter and/or mare:

    I was able to believe for years that going to Madame Swann’s was a vague chimera that I would never attain; after having passed a quarter of an hour there, it was the time at which I did not know her which became to me a chimera and vague, as a possible destroyed by another possible.
    Marcel Proust (1871–1922)

    Who said, ‘All Time’s delight
    Hath she for narrow bed;
    Life’s troubled bubble broken’?—
    That’s what I said.
    —Walter De La Mare (1873–1956)
