Famous quotes containing the words the morning and/or morning:
“The name of the town isn’t important. It’s the one that’s just twenty-eight minutes from the big city. Twenty-three if you catch the morning express. It’s on a river and it’s got houses and stores and churches. And a main street. Nothing fancy like Broadway or Market, just plain Broadway. Drug, dry good, shoes. Those horrible little chain stores that breed like rabbits.”
—Joseph L. Mankiewicz (1909–1993)
“Poor tired Tim! It’s sad for him
He lags the long bright morning through,
Ever so tired of nothing to do;”
—Walter De La Mare (1873–1956)
