Famous quotes containing the words delay and/or line:

    “Keep on adding, keep on walking, keep on progressing: do not delay on the road, do not go back, do not deviate.”
    —St. Augustine (354–430)

    “It is a great many years since at the outset of my career I had to think seriously what life had to offer that was worth having. I came to the conclusion that the chief good for me was freedom to learn, think, and say what I pleased, when I pleased. I have acted on that conviction... and though strongly, and perhaps wisely, warned that I should probably come to grief, I am entirely satisfied with the results of the line of action I have adopted.”
    —Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
