Clock Stops

Famous quotes containing the words clock and/or stops:

“Stands the Church clock at ten to three?
And is there honey still for tea?”
—Rupert Brooke (1887–1915)

“There is nothing truer than myth: history, in its attempt to “realize” myth, distorts it, stops halfway; when history claims to have “succeeded” this is nothing but humbug and mystification. Everything we dream is “realizable.” Reality does not have to be: it is simply what it is.”
—Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)
