Time Number

Famous quotes containing the words time and/or number:

    “There has been in our time a lack of reliance on language and a lack of experimentation which are frightening to anyone who sees them as symptoms. We know the phenomenon of stage-fright: it holds the player shivering, incapable of speech or action. Perhaps there is an audience-fright which the play can feel, which leaves him with these incapacities.”
    —Muriel Rukeyser (1913–1980)

    “I am walking over hot coals suspended over a deep pit at the bottom of which are a large number of vipers baring their fangs.”
    —John Major (b. 1943)
