Famous quotes containing the word waiting:
“While waiting to get married, several forms of employment were acceptable. Teaching kindergarten was for those girls who stayed in school four years. The rest were secretaries, typists, file clerks, or receptionists in insurance firms or banks, preferably those owned or run by the family, but respectable enough if the boss was an upstanding Christian member of the community.”
—Barbara Howar (b. 1934)
“And they wonder, as waiting the long years through
In the dust of that little chair,
What has become of our Little Boy Blue,
Since he kissed them and put them there.”
—Eugene Field (18501895)
“Brigid: Youre not ...
Sam Spade: Yes, angel. Im gonna send you over. But chances are youll get off with life. That means if youre a good girl youll get out in twenty years. Ill be waiting for you. If they hang you, Ill always remember you.”
—John Huston (19061987)
