Famous quotes containing the word waiting:
“Virginity is now a mere preamble or waiting room to be got out of as soon as possible; it is without significance. Old age is similarly a waiting room, where you go after lifes over and wait for cancer or a stroke. The years before and after the menstrual years are vestigial: the only meaningful condition left to women is that of fruitfulness.”
—Ursula K. Le Guin (b. 1929)
“A sure way to irritate people and to put evil thoughts into their heads is to keep them waiting a long time. This makes them immoral.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (18441900)
“And we shall play a game of chess,
Pressing lidless eyes and waiting for a knock upon the door.”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
