Famous quotes containing the words hours and/or mans:

    “There are more truths in twenty-four hours of a man’s life than in all the philosophies.”
    —Raoul Vaneigem (b. 1934)

    “Of Mans First Disobedience, and the Fruit
    Of that Forbidden Tree, whose mortal taste
    Brought Death into the World, and all our woe,
    With loss of Eden, till one greater Man
    Restore us, and regain the blissful Seat,
    Sing Heav’nly Muse, that on the secret top
    Of Oreb, or of Sinai, didst inspire
    That Shepherd, who first taught the chosen Seed,
    In the Beginning how the Heav’ns and Earth
    Rose out of Chaos:”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)
