Famous quotes containing the words weekday, rush and/or service:
“But listen, up the road, something gulps, the church spire
Opens its eight bells out, skulls mouths which will not tire
To tell how there is no music or movement which secures
Escape from the weekday time. Which deadens and endures.”
—Louis MacNeice (19071963)

—Aldous Huxley (18941963)
“Books can only reveal us to ourselves, and as often as they do us this service we lay them aside.”
