Short

Famous quotes containing the word short:

“If true that notion, which but few contest,
That in the way of wit short things are best,
Then in good epigrams two virtues meet,
For ‘tis their glory to be short and sweet.”
—Anonymous. From A Collection of Epigrams (1727)

“But come what sorrow can,
It cannot countervail the exchange of joy
That one short minute gives me in her sight.”
