Slow

Famous quotes containing the word slow:

“Snug. Have you the lion’s part written? Pray you, if it be, give it me; for I am slow of study.
Quince. You may do it extempore, for it is nothing but roaring.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“Sorrow is hard to bear, and doubt is slow to clear,
Each sufferer says his say, his scheme of the weal and woe:
But God has a few of us whom he whispers in the ear;
The rest may reason and welcome; ‘tis we musicians know.”
—Robert Browning (1812–1889)

“And when his hours are numbered, and the world
Is all his own, retiring, as he were not,
Leaves, when the sun appears, astonished Art
To mimic in slow structures, stone by stone,
Built in an age, the mad wind’s night-work,
The frolic architecture of the snow.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
